About this listen

In A Time of Courage, angels, demons and heroes face the ultimate fight for the Banished Lands. This is the epic conclusion to John Gwynne's mighty trilogy: Of Blood and Bone.

Battle the dark. Reclaim the world....

The King of the Otherworld is finally free. Armed with fearsome new starstone weapons, Asroth prepares to lead his demonic war-host south. And with the help of his bride, Fritha, he plans to crush the warrior-angels and their allies for good.

In the shadows of Forn Forest, Riv and the surviving Ben-Elim hold a war council ­­– desperate to unite those who would stand against Asroth and his army. They decide to fly west, to join the Order of the Bright Star. But Drem and the Order are already under siege by a demon horde and their fragile defences may soon shatter.

Across the Banished Lands, armies are gathering to settle ancient grudges and decide the fate of humanity. Drem, Riv and the Bright Star’s warriors will need to call on all their courage as they face the final battle. But will it be enough, as their darkest hour draws near?

what can I say, this series was as good as the last, I actually rationed the last book as I didn't want it to end and the narrator was the icing on the cake so we'll read. sorry it finished.

FANTASTIC

the final book did not disappoint

What an epic, combat riddled finale of emotion, retribution and revenge. Fantastic! Like D.G's Legend across a vaster scape and including way more heroines, heroes and villains.

Epic action throughout!

Really enjoyed this trilogy following on from the initial series.
Narration is fabulous, as it has been for all the books. The pace of the story is totally compelling.
Perhaps there is a hint of more to come?

Excellent finish

As the title says! The overall story, characters and depth were not of the same quality in my opinion.

The narration was at times very badly edited, full of pregnant pauses which at times seriously affected the flow of the story.

I would have rated 3.5 stars.

Not as good as the original series

I have really enjoyed this series of audio books, they're well written and well read. I'm just sad they have ended.

Great series

Battles. Battles. Battles. Wow. Loved this. What a way to end the series. Can’t say more without spoilers

Whirlwind Ride

THIS is how you do FANTASY!! THIS is how you make full characters to love or hate! THIS is how you set the stakes to the HIGHEST POSSIBLE LEVEL!!

Incredible

I felt a little less connected to the characters than I did the original characters of Corbin etc but still a great series of books worthy of a listen / read.

Great conclusion
