I was so stoked for it to come out in 2020, but it was pushed back to 2021 for understandable reasons. I heard about this book years ago when Jay first started promoting it. They were very different but spoke to me in their own ways. I read Illuminae first and later read Nevernight by him. Well, I suppose I should start with the fact that I have been a Jay Kristoff fan for a while. Where do I even begin? I truly have so much to say and so many emotions that it’s hard to pick where to start this review… MAJOR SPOILERS BELOW! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED A story of legendary battles and forbidden love, of faith lost and friendships won, of the Wars of the Blood and the Forever King and the quest for humanity’s last remaining hope:įrom the New York Times bestselling author of the Nevernight Chronicle, Jay Kristoff, comes the first book of an astonishing illustrated dark fantasy saga.

Imprisoned by the very monsters he vowed to destroy, the last silversaint is forced to tell his story. But even the Silver Order couldn’t stem the tide once daylight failed us, and now, only Gabriel remains. Gabriel de León is a silversaint: a member of a holy brotherhood dedicated to defending realm and church from the creatures of the night. Now, only a few tiny sparks of light endure in a sea of darkness. For nearly three decades, vampires have waged war against humanity building their eternal empire even as they tear down our own. It has been twenty-seven long years since the last sunrise.
