The New Empire intends to mark its victory over the Nationalists with a bloody celebration. On the high holiday of Wintertide, the Witch of Melengar will be burned and the Heir of Novron executed. On that same day the Empress faces a forced marriage, with a fatal accident soon follow. The New Empire is confident in the totality of its triumph but there's just one problem-Royce and Hadrian have finally found the true Heir of Novron---and they have their own holiday plans. When author Michael J. Sullivan self-published the first books of his Riyria Revelations series online, they rapidly became ebook bestsellers. Now, Orbit is pleased to present the complete series for the first time in bookstores everywhere. Heir of Novron is the final volume of The Riyria Revelations and includes Wintertide and ---available for the first time--- the final volume, Percepliquis.

Oh my, that was wonderful! I spent the last hundred pages or so both wanting to get to the end, and being reluctant to finish because I didn't want it to be over.
Don't start this series without having all the books on hand, or you will kick yourself. They are simply so engaging that you will find it necessary to know what happens next. The plot is simply incredible.
Royce and Hadrian are wonderful. I couldn't stand Arista at first, but she certainly grew on me. Molina is a little two-dimensional, but that makes sense in some respects.
Now I have to go find the prequels and read them, because I don't want to leave Sullivan's world just yet.
Holy cow! This was the best book in the series, and one of the best books I've read. It's right up there next to Stormlight Archive!!!
An amazing end to the series! I feel like I should have been able to guess more of the big reveals given all the foreshadowing, but I didn't, so it was super fun at the end. I really enjoyed how this series managed to have one overarching story arc across a bunch of smaller, mostly self-contained story arcs. Such an enjoyable series! I will definitely be reading the other related series by Sullivan.
Talking about satisfying endings!! I have no words. This book has been everything I was hoping for and more. I need more of Hadrian and Royce. They're officially my favorite pair of friends.
