Summary
From the bestselling author of Sanctuary comes a gripping Orwellian vision of Britain, with a rebellious Hunger Games heart. Bright Ruin is the third and final title in Vic James’s electrifying Dark Gifts Trilogy, following Tarnished City.
A shattered country
A world-changing magic
Magically gifted aristocrats rule Britain, and the people must serve them. But rebellion now strikes at the heart of the old order. Abi has escaped public execution, thanks to an unexpected ally. Her brother Luke is on the run with Silyen Jardine, the most mysterious aristocrat of all. And as political and magical conflicts escalate, each must decide how far they’ll go for their beliefs.
Dragons clash in the skies, as two powerful women duel for the soul of Britain. A symbol of government will blaze as it dies, and doors between worlds will open – and close forever. But the battle within human hearts will be the fiercest of all.

Do recommend! 😍
😍
This series is a ride!
I just read book 1 and 2 as a reread to prepare for book 3.
And it was absolutely worth it!
The was so much up and down in this series.
I sometimes took small breaks because it was just so much to compute.
But again: definitely worth it!

Best trilogy I read in a long time
Don’t want to leave these characters behind.
I have never listened to a trilogy that gets better with each book.
Hopefully there will be more from Vic james in the future.

Best YA Trilogy since the Hunger Games
Love, Love LOVED this trilogy. I bought the first one when it was the Daily Deal and it languiished in my library for a while but once I started it I was totatlly gripped and I had to buy the second two immediately andhave raced throught the lot.
Refreshingly unpredictable. The main cast of well rounded and complex characters all have interesting journeys and it's wonderful how your allegency and sympathy changes over the course of the tale.
I don't want to give any spoilers but the final installment really delivers.
This is definitely one I'll be returning to in the future I'm sure.
The narrator does a great job too !

Cliffhanger resolution on final book of a trilogy
I enjoyed the story despite the more disturbing aspects snuck in like Rape, torture and child abuse. However the author’s fondness for ending books without a real resolution is pretty annoying. I personally like the characters I’ve followed through books like this to have some sort of resolution (good or bad) so was frustrated by this series. Still it’s a good book, especially if you like Hunger Games or Divergent

Perfect end to the Dark Gifts trilogy
I really enjoyed Bright Ruin, the final installment of the Dark Gifts trilogy.
The storyline was satisfying, and shocking, answered questions, asked more questions, went the way I imagined and the way I never thought.
Really enjoyed it and highly recommend the whole trilogy.

Good enough conclusion
Enjoyable trilogy set in a dystopian England controlled by a "skilled" ruling class who keep the majority of the unskilled population in semi-slavery.
