NATIONAL BESTSELLER - The jaw-dropping conclusion to the acclaimed Founders Trilogy, from the Hugo-nominated author of Foundryside and Shorefall Its so rare to love every single book in a trilogy, to admire the aim, precision, and storytelling stamina this much.--The New York Times Book Review Sancia, Clef, and Berenice have gone up against long odds in the past. But the war theyre fighting now is one even they cant win. This time, theyre not facing robber-baron elites or even an immortal hierophant, but an entity whose intelligence is spread over half the globe--one that uses the magic of scriving to control not just objects but human minds. To fight it, theyve used scriving technology to transform themselves and their allies into an army--a society--unlike anything humanity has seen before. With its strength at their backs, theyve freed a handful of their enemys hosts from servitude, and even defeated some of its fearsome, reality-altering dreadnoughts. Yet despite their efforts, their enemy marches on. Implacable. Unstoppable. Now, as their opponent closes in on its true prize--an ancient doorway, long buried, that leads to the chambers at the center of creation itself--Sancia and her friends glimpse a last opportunity to stop this unbeatable foe. To do so, theyll have to unlock the centuries-old mystery of scrivings origins, embark on a desperate mission into the heart of their enemys power, and pull off the most daring heist theyve ever attempted. But their adversary might have a spy in their ranks--and a last trick up its sleeve. And to have a chance at victory, Sancia, Clef, and Berenice will have to make a sacrifice beyond anything thats come before.Robert Jackson Bennett is the author of Foundryside, Shorefall, and the Divine Cities trilogy, which was a Hugo Award finalist in the Best Series category.
