Three Shattered Souls 

3.5 ⭐️

The final wrap up in this series is here! If you like an audiobook with a full cast from a ton of POVs, this is a great series for that. 

The same adventurous cast are back for a final wrap up as the continue to save their world. As they each lose strength from using their relics, they have to decide what is most important. 

I liked this one more than the second, it definitely felt like it had a lot more action. While I didn’t love love it like I did the first, it was a nice wrap up without being too perfect in it’s conclusion.

In the final installment of The Broken Blades Trilogy, the four remaining blades attempt to stop a war from occurring between nations - and gather the remaining relics of the dragon lord. But with enemies rising on every side, they risk death just by living. 

I am OBSESSED with this trilogy. I could sing the praises of Corland's writing and characterization off the rooftops, and I will forever revere her as one of my favorite authors. The characters were raw and authentic, and a story waiting to be told. However, since I feel like I've discussed a lot of what I like about this book series in my two previous reviews for books one and two, I will note that this finale for the book was a little disappointing. It also felt a tad rushed toward the end, and I didn't get time to absorb everything that was happening - nor did it feel like the characters truly got to feel it. I also found Rune's sudden neutrality to be a bit plot convenient, alongside the null claim to him being Tiyung's sire (which felt like a forgotten plot thread the author had to clarify last minute). All in all, a good series, but there were a couple things in this final book that I felt could've been done better.
