The capital has fallen. The Darkling rules Ravka from his shadow throne.
Now the nation's fate rests with a broken Sun Summoner, a disgraced
tracker, and the shattered remnants of a once-great magical army. Deep in
an ancient network of tunnels and caverns, a weakened Alina must submit to
the dubious protection of the Apparat and the zealots who worship her as a
Saint. Yet her plans lie elsewhere, with the hunt for the elusive firebird
and the hope that an outlaw prince still survives. Alina will have to forge
new alliances and put aside old rivalries as she and Mal race to find the
last of Morozova's amplifiers. But as she begins to unravel the Darkling's
secrets, she reveals a past that will forever alter her understanding of
the bond they share and the power she wields. The firebird is the one thing
that stands between Ravka and destruction--and claiming it could cost Alina
the very future she's fighting for. Ruin and Rising is the thrilling final
installment in Leigh Bardugo's Grisha Trilogy.
