Summary
In the city of Imardin, where magic and power walk hand-in-hand, a young street-girl, adopted by the Magicians’ Guild, finds herself at the centre of a terrible plot.
Sonea has learned much at the Magicians’ Guild and and the other novices now treat her with a grudging respect. But she cannot forget what she witnessed in the High Lord Akkarin’s underground chamber – or his warning that the realm’s ancient enemy is watching the Guild closely. Her old friend Cery now has an influential position among the Thieves, and good connections in high and low places. When an exotic stranger offers to help him with a secret task, Cery know he should refuse, but then …
As Akkarin reveals more of his knowledge, Sonea does not know who to believe, or what she most fears. Could the truth really be as terrifying as the High Lord claims? Does an ancient power threaten them all? Or is he trying to trick her into assisting him with his dark schemes?

Amazing conclusion to a wonderful series
As usual Trudi Canavan has penned another cracker. The whole series has been phenomenal and this final book was the cherry atop the cake

An Epic Conclusion
Well, here is the much anticipated conclusion to Trudi Canavan's excellent Black Magician Trilogy and what a delight it is to be able to hear it unabridged! This book more than lives up to the promises set by the first two. Questions are answered, though nothing is as it seems. This is the most powerful of the trilogy and my personal favourite. I defy anyone not to be in tears at the end. I was sad to reach the end and I think the only solution is to start all over again! I believe the author is not done with these characters, so I'm eagerly awaiting the next instalment of their adventures.

Always loved
I’ve been reading and listening to this series since I was 13 - I will always love it.... Sone of Richard Aspels voices are rather annoying though- I prefer the narrator of the abridged versions. However the story and characters are worth it!

Fantastic trilogy
Great end to the first 3 part saga of Sonea's story - do not think i could have listened to it being read by anyone else.

The best book in the trilogy
Having been slightly bored by the first book (nothing particularly new, plot thin and predictable, writing nothing special), I have to admit that I loved this last book in the series, and was left feeling quite bereft, with a real sense of loss at the end (I had to revert to Sookie Stackhouse for some light relief!).
Why did I push on with the trilogy having been disappointed by the first book ? Simple: I had stupidly already purchased and downloaded the entire trilogy - have to say that I'm glad I did.
It certainly doesn't rate amongst my best listens (the narration is ok, but only "ok"), but it gathers momentum in this last book, and whilst clearly aimed at the younger market, surprisingly I enjoyed it, and I don't regret the credits spent.

A good read
If a little long winded in places. Places where I thought this may be the last I read of the series. I will go on the next. Enjoy

A struggle
One of my all time favourite trilogies, but very sadly wasn't a big fan of the narrator. if you enjoy the sound of mouth noises and stuffy noses, then you won't mind it. But, at times it was infuriatingly distracting.
