About this ebook

***THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING SERIES***

'EPIC, VIVID AND BELIEVABLE'
Guardian on Thief's Magic

International No. 1 bestselling author Trudi Canavan returns with the thrilling final chapter in her Millennium's Rule series - a place where worlds are at war and magic is not what it seems . . .

Rielle is the Maker, restorer of worlds. She has lost count of the number of worlds she has been sent to save.

Tyen has cast off his old identity. No longer a spy, he now attempts to teach new sorcerers and find ways to counteract the war machines that are spreading throughout the worlds.

But when an old enemy brings news of a dark threat - something far worse than magically dead worlds and dangerous sorcerers - Rielle and Tyen must reunite if they are to have any chance of saving humanity.

Praise for Millennium's Rule:

'Her easy, flowing style makes for effortless reading . . . Delightful worldbuilding . . . Vivid and enjoyable' SFX

'A must for fans of Canavan's previous work and for fantasy fans in general' Press Association

'Rielle's story entrances . . . leaving readers eager for the next two volumes' Publishers Weekly

'The world-building is tremendous. The magical system is sophisticated and fascinating' Striking Keys

Very disappointing. Waited ages for this final book. Added nothing new to original main characters. You wait a long time to learn what the curse is and its not really a curse at all, very easy to get around. We do see Qall develop but the plot is just rubbish. We have a new baddie appearing from nowhere, no backstory, no character development, pathetically easy to defeat. How many times do we have to read intricate details of world hopping? Some interesting new characters (librarian) that are not explored fully. Seems like author was in a rush to just get the series finished. There is scope for another sequel as some characters were left hanging, though I wouldn't bother reading another book in this series. I conclude by saying this is one of the worse books I have ever read, a shame as the previous books were strong.

Very enjoyable book, but the ending felt very rushed and the main villain was never anything more than an underdeveloped distant threat. I finished the book with a lot of unanswered questions.

I have read all off Trudi's work; this is a great addition to the other 3 books and a great telling of it. The story was great but the ending was a little sudden and I echo others reviewers in that the main threat was never fully realised.
