Publisher's Summary

From best-selling author Danielle L. Jensen comes a thrilling new novel in the Dark Shores world, a series that Sarah J. Maas called "everything I look for in a fantasy novel".

Their battles ended in victory....

Lydia returns to Mudaire to enter training at the healing temple. But instead of fighting to save lives, she’s convinced she is doing more harm than good. She delves into the history of the gods only to discover a truth that will change her life forever. 

His birthright as commander of the Royal Army is finally in his grasp, but Killian feels anything but victorious. Burdened by his past, he embraces the darker side of his mark - and in doing so, risks starting a war. 

But the war has only just begun....

Having defeated the tyrant Urcon, Marcus struggles to form a lasting alliance with the Arinoquians. But he is plagued by the knowledge that there is a traitor among his friends, and it could cost him everything that he’s fought for. 

Torn between her growing allegiance to the 37th legion and her need to liberate her people, Teriana finds herself mired in a web of secrets. She embarks upon a path that will either save everyone she loves - or put them all in their graves. 

Listeners may listen to either Dark Shores or Dark Skies first!

This was amazing!!

The world building, the pacing of the story, the characters!!All of it was fantastic! My only complaint is the cliff hanger at the end of Gilded Serpent. It gave me stress dreams.

Fantastic story!

A story filled with exciting action, difficult moral choices and characters I really cared about.
Despite the fact that I am definitely not in the “teen and young adult” age group, I have enjoyed the series immensely. Thanks to having to manufacture reasons to listen to the audio books, I have accomplished many mindless tasks.
So sad that I have to wait months for the final book!

Perfect story combination

Danielle has brought the first two books Brilliantly together in this third book in the series. Tension, romance, betrayals, surprises and cliff hangers are through this book and cannot wait to see what happens next.

I wish it had ended very differently on every single front! I was looking forward to pieces that didn’t happen but all in all it was good

Love this series!

I have devoured this series faster than any series that I have read. The characters are diverse and it’s easy to connect with them. I’m can’t imagine how much detail when into writing a book with so many points of view, but it is indeed impressive. I can’t wait for the next book!

Where’s the next one?

An amazing story, that I thought would be the conclusion of the series with its extraordinary length, but delightfully discovered that it will need to be continued! I can’t wait!
