For two thousand years the Arameri family has ruled the world by enslaving the very gods that created mortalkind. Now the gods are free, and the Arameri's ruthless grip is slipping. Yet they are all that stands between peace and world-spanning, unending war. Shahar, last scion of the family, must choose her loyalties. She yearns to trust Sieh, the godling she loves. Yet her duty as Arameri heir is to uphold the family's interests, even if that means using and destroying everyone she cares for. As long-suppressed rage and terrible new magics consume the world, the Maelstrom - which even gods fear - is summoned forth. Shahar and Sieh: mortal and god, lovers and enemies. Can they stand together against the chaos that threatens the kingdom of gods?

The Kingdoms of the Gods begins a little over a hundred years after The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms and f...
I'm still overwhelmed by this series being over - I loved it, I loved the characters, I loved the concepts, and now I won't ever read anything else about them, and it's making me way sadder than it should. I don't even want to start another book now, because I feel as if if I do, I won't be as close...
