Dreams of Gods & Monsters
ByPublisher Description
Two worlds threaten to crumble in the face of a common enemy in the epic conclusion to the New York Times bestselling Daughter of Smoke & Bone trilogy.
Two worlds are poised on the brink of a vicious war. By way of a staggering deception, Karou has taken control of the chimaera's rebellion and is intent on steering its course away from dead-end vengeance. The future rests on her.
When the brutal angel emperor brings his army to the human world, Karou and Akiva are finally reunited—not in love, but in tentative alliance against their common enemy. It is a twisted version of their long-ago dream, and they begin to hope that it might forge a way forward for their people. And, perhaps, for themselves.
But with even bigger threats on the horizon, are Karou and Akiva strong enough to stand among the gods and monsters?
The New York Times bestselling Daughter of Smoke & Bone trilogy comes to a stunning conclusion as—from the streets of Rome to the caves of the Kirin and beyond—humans, chimaera, and seraphim strive, love, and die in an epic theater that transcends good and evil, right and wrong, friend and enemy.

“It took me a long time to finish this book but that's not the book's fault, it was really good! I feel like the only thing that kept it from getting all 5 stars from me was because towards the very end, things started happening so quickly, I couldn't really make sense of it or really relate the ending to the vibe of the rest of the series. It felt oddly disjointed to me and idk if that's just me or what. Still, this was a satisfying end and its safe to say that this is in my top 10 favorite series!”
