The Chariot at Dusk by Swati Teerdhala digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

The sweeping, dramatic finale of Swati Teerdhala’s South India-inspired fantasy trilogy rounds out the epic, romantic tale of an assassin and a soldier fighting to save their country and their people. Perfect for fans of Sabaa Tahir and Victoria Aveyard.

A queen at last. An empty palace. A kingdom to save.

Esha is reeling from Kunal’s betrayal, but she has a kingdom to rule from behind a thin smokescreen—pretending to be Princess Reha while she sends her most trusted soldiers to collect Reha and Kunal by any means necessary. Traitors, after all, must be punished.

But the Yavar are attacking from every front—tracking down Kunal and Reha in the remote mountains, kidnapping Harun—in search of legendary artifacts that will give them the power to break the precarious janma bond and release the destructive magic back into the lands.

Now that the race is on to find the missing artifacts, Esha must put aside her rage and work with Kunal again—but can she find the strength to forgive him, or will the Viper have her revenge at any cost?

Thumbs Up“How do we go through a whole trilogy and it's in the last book that it's like no men took the female characters seriously? Honestly, this series could've been a standalone novel with just the first book. Like last time I'm not a fan of the love knot that continues on. It feels like it tried to bring back the enemy to lovers bit but there was no spark, no warmth or connection. Could've been nice to have Esha rise above with no man instead of seeing her jump from childhood love lorn to fall back guy. I was so invested in the secondary characters, almost lost them in the midst of the plot trying to wrap up all the side quests.”
Slightly Smiling Face“This was a great end to this series and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I struggle with YA and this was no exception but even with those struggles, I have to say this series did a good job keeping me invested overall. The court intrigue was deep enough to be interesting and the characters were great, if a little over stubborn. And I think the pacing and action were really well balanced in this book. Solid book, solid premise, solid ending.”
