This is one big seven-hundred-page story split into three parts, so it’s impossible to review “The Divided Earth” without talking about “The Nameless City” trilogy as a whole, because most of the book’s payoffs are tied to set-ups in the previous two books, and this book is practically all payoff.Īlso, while I kept my previous reviews spoiler free, since this is the last book of the trilogy, I’m going to be diving into heavy spoiler territory here. It’s a sequence designed to set the stage for the story to come, not just for the first volume, but for its sequels, “The Stone Heart” and “The Divided Earth,” too.
With deft world-building, frantic battle scenes, and a gentle and moving friendship at its heart, The Nameless City has earned its place as one of the great fantasy series of our time.īack in the first volume of “The Nameless City,” there was a sequence very early in the book with Kai walking through the city streets with his father explaining the history of the city and its many peoples. In her third and final installment in the Nameless City trilogy, Faith Erin Hicks delivers a heart-thumping conclusion. Meanwhile, Rat and Kai must infiltrate Erzi’s palace and steal back the ancient and deadly formula for napatha, the ancient weapon of mass destruction Erzi has unearthed―before he can use it to destroy everything Rat and Kai hold dear!
And the people of the city―the “Named”―are caught in between. The Nameless City―held by the rogue Dao prince Erzi―is under siege by a coalition of Dao and Yisun forces who are determined to end the war for the Nameless City once and for all. Written and Illustrated by Faith Erin Hicks
