About this listen
The thrilling conclusion to the New York Times best-selling Tearling trilogy.
In less than a year, Kelsea Glynn has transformed from a gawky teenager into a powerful monarch. As she has come into her own as the Queen of the Tearling, the headstrong, visionary leader has also transformed her realm. In her quest to end corruption and restore justice, she has made many enemies - including the evil Red Queen, her fiercest rival, who has set her armies against the Tear.
To protect her people from a devastating invasion, Kelsea did the unthinkable - she gave herself and her magical sapphires to her enemy - and named the Mace, the trusted head of her personal guards, regent in her place. But the Mace will not rest until he and his men rescue their sovereign, imprisoned in Mortmesne.
Now, as the suspenseful endgame begins, the fate of Queen Kelsea - and the Tearling itself - will finally be revealed.

For a long moment
How did the overused and repetitive phrases get through editing? There are way too many lingering gazes described through the phrase "for a long moment". Drove me a little bonkers and detracted from an otherwise decent story. Didn't take the direction I was expecting, but I don't know if that excitement made up for that stupid phrase popping up in every other... moment.

It was okay.
I don’t understand why the narrator changed from the one that did the first two?
I also felt the end was seriously rushed, kinda disappointed in the conclusion of the story

Hate the narration
I don't understand why the narrator was changed for every book in this trilogy. This last one ruins it. Accents have changed. Heros have weird nasally voices or a completely flat monotone. Ruined the book for me.

Changes in narrator is irritating!
Would you listen to The Fate of the Tearling again? Why?
This is a great book, book 3 in the series. Loving the time lag story line, the story and the characters.
What aspect of Polly Lee’s performance might you have changed?
Changes in narrator between books is irritating and distracting but when the accent of the characters change dramatically between books, this is incredibly frustrating and spoiled my experience. E.g. William Tear goes from sophisticated, well spoken gentleman to Dorset farmer between book 2 and 3 - sort it out!!!

OK book,...
OK book with regards to storyline etc, though I felt it was incredibly rushed towards the end.
Also had to contend with, and get used to a different person reading than with book 1 or book 2. (which both have different readers!). It's quite frustrating having to try to get used to another person, who does accents and voice timbres completely differently!! Grrr 😡 😡

Pretty epic
4.5 stars
I loved this series, my favourite book for the story and the narrator was the Invasion of the Tearling, but this book was a close second. Such a fantastic climax to the series and you really empathise with all of the characters, and the way information is revealed is really exciting but still feels natural. I think this series has been one of my favourite reads/listens ever, highly recommend.

Not enamoured by the third reading.
Enjoyed the first two books enormously, had I not checked the narrator after starting the third book I would have said the same person continued from the first to the second, but the reader of the last book completely changed the characters voices and was so droll , I really hated listening to the third book but I wanted to finish the series.
Excellent books,excellent narrators for the first two books but a thumbs down for the third reader, whoever was in charge of the continuation could have , should have made a better choice or at least aimed for a similar reading.

Great story, narrator could be better
I loved this series, however it was a little annoying how each book in the trilogy had a different narrator.
The first two narrators I thought were fantastic, and the 2nd narrator seemed to try and match voices and accents that the first narrator had created for characters.
The 3rd narrator however, did not do a good of a job at this, and at first some of the voices she did for characters were a bit jarring, as they didn't match the characters I had developed in my mind.
By the end of the book I had gotten used to it, but still, it could have been narrated better.

Brilliant conclusion to the trilogy
This book answered almost all of the questions I had about the story and characters introduced in the first two. I really enjoyed it and found it a satisfying conclusion, with just enough left to keep me wondering and thinking about the story afterwards. The world the author has created is absolutely fascinating, the characters are believable and layered, and the fantasy elements are intriguing. A great series for fantasy lovers who like a bit of history and politics thrown in.
