Mirrored Heavens by Rebecca Roanhorse
5.0
Mirrored Heavens is the third and final book to the epic fantasy series Between Earth & Sky.
Ya'll. I cried at the end of this one and now I am devastated because my favorite series has come to an end. I am 100% satisfied with the conclusion of this trilogy but I can see some people screaming with rage at one particular character arc that was left ... up in the air shall we say. Me personally, I hope this means we are getting another series in this rich and complex world Roanhorse has created. Without going into spoilers I will add Roanhorse continued to expand on the colorful cultures of the Meridian, several plot points come to a head, we have yet another prophecy and we get to learn more about Xiala !
If you haven't already picked up this series let try to convince you. This series starts off with Black Sun. It is an epic multi-POV fantasy series set in pre-Columbian times. There is a diverse cast of morally gray characters, lush writing and expert world building. This is one of those series where I forgot I was reading. Black Sun is a compulsive read, partly because the book is structured in a way in which we are counting down to a specific moment. Even though I think both plot and character-driven readers will enjoy this series, I personally loved the characters.
I hope you give this series a chance because you won't regret it. It's so unique and vibrant and also a bit dark.
Thank you to Saga Press and Netgalley for an advanced reader copy of Mirrored Heavens.
