Publisher's summary

Dexter meets Victoria Schwab in this dark and compelling fantasy about a girl who is determined to take down the black market once and for all in the conclusion to the trilogy that started with the critically acclaimed Not Even Bones.

Nita finally has Fabricio, the boy who betrayed her to the black market, within her grasp. But when proof that Kovit’s a zannie - a monster who eats pain in order to survive - is leaked to the world, Nita must reevalute her plans.

With enemies closing in on all sides, the only way out is for Nita and Kovit to take on the most dangerous man in the world: Fabricio’s father. He protects the secrets of the monsters who run the black market. Stealing those secrets could be the one thing that stands between Nita and Kovit and certain death in the thrilling conclusion to the trilogy that began with the critically acclaimed Not Even Bones.

Critic reviews

"Villains rise and shine in this final entry in the Market of Monsters trilogy.... Although the novel never crosses a line into sugarcoating their inexcusable choices, it does show sympathy for its devils as it sails into a grand finale full of twists and turns.... A dark, compelling ending to an uncomfortable, morally gray series." (Kirkus)

good storyline

I loved the storyline but the characters are consistently running their hands through their hair, biting lips. the writing you can tell is from a new author but the story line is amazing.

Really good

I love this series and i’m sad that it’s ending but it was so good🥰💞💞 Definitely top 10 favorite books series

Amazing

I started reading a webcomic called Not Even Bones and fell in love. It wasn't until later that I found out it was based off of a trilogy by Rebecca Schaeffer. I downloaded them because I didn't want to wait every week for a new episode to upload every week and boy am I glad I did. This book is amazing as are the first two. Its amazing being able to be inside Nita's head and get to hear her internal conflicts, her hypocrisy, her self realizations and her growth towards becoming her own person. The emphasis of powerful, yet nonromantic relationships. Just amazing 👏

great story! is this really the end?

nail biting from beginning to end. I hope this isn't end! I finished this book in less than a week.

Great narrator

The natator is very skilled, I always know who is talking and what they feel.

Can’t think of better words right now

Beautiful fantastic marvelous 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 this requires 12 more words, spectacular, undeniably wonderful no qualms just a✨ masterpiece✨

Phenomenal!!!! I

I found this series on Webtoon. Had no idea it was created in book form first. I finished Book/season 2 and I couldn't wait for season 3 to drop. I felt the characters emotions so much I was laughing, panicking, feeling heartbreak and triumph with them. Simply, truly, utterly amazing. I enjoyed this immensely. Thank you so much to Rebecca and Almarie!!!!!!!!

Litterally cried

There were so many times where I had to literally stop the story and pace around when the climax hit. I litterally nearly had an anxiety attack! I’ve kept up with the series and the Webtoon so to say I’m not surprised would be a lie personally but it’s such an amazing series! I hate that this is the end but I loved it and I highly recommend giving it a listen and the voice performance was amazing as always!

I love it

Will there be another book to follow the story?
Or is this the last one?
I really enjoy this type of storyline I will love to see another one
