Publisher's summary

Years ago, Lindon left his home as a powerless Unsouled. Now, he goes to war with the most powerful beings in the world over the future of Cradle itself.

The Weeping Dragon has a grudge to settle, and Lindon intends to take out the Dreadgod with his friends by his side. But rival Monarchs know his plans, and they won’t let things end so easily.

If Lindon does win, he will ascend to the heavens. But he may not find a safe haven there either.

In the worlds above, Suriel and Ozriel face off against the Mad King to determine the new shape of the cosmos. The victor will decide the fate of countless universes.

Whether he wins or dies, Lindon will soon leave this life behind.

The time has come to say good-bye to Cradle.

Featured Article: The Best Fantasy Audiobooks to Take You Out of This World


Few audiobooks provide as much of an escape as those in the fantasy genre. Each of the best introduces us to an entirely new world (or a new version of this one), a diverse cast of complexly constructed characters, and a story so mesmerizing we’re reluctant to return to real life. But because the genre is so full of talent, it can be difficult to know what to listen to next. Look no further than this list of the best fantasy audiobooks to get you started.

Feels abridged, but nicely done.

It was inevitable that the pace of this book would be on another level from the others; there was so much to accomplish in one book. Will did a great job with it, I just wish it would have been spread out over a couple books so it felt less rushed.

Great example; the scene where Lindon brings all of the accessory characters (sister, father, etc.) in front of him at once and neatly tries to wrap up all of their intertwined threads before discarding them for good.

Overall great story and stellar narration.

Great way to end the series

This is a fitting conclusion to a great series. Peak character development all round. Really happy with how all lose ends were tied up. I highly recommend this audiobook.

I Need More

I need more. This is one of the best series I've ever read. It would be sad to see it artificially extended and become boring, so we need something else set in the same universe, with maybe some of the characters. That way, if it's not great, at least the glory of Cradle isn't tarnished, but at the same time we still get more.

A great ending to a greater series.

A vast sense of emptiness is all that’s left in me after finishing this book. The series is over :(. But what a great ride it was!
