"The Discord of Gods marks the epic conclusion to Jenn Lyons's Chorus of Dragons series, closing out the saga that began with The Ruin of Kings, for fans of Brandon Sanderson and Patrick Rothfuss. THEIR CONFLICT COULD END THEM ALL. Relos Var's final plans to enslave the universe are on the cusp of fruition. He believes there's only one being in existence that might be able to stop him: the demon Xaltorath. As these two masterminds circle each other, neither is paying attention to the third player on the board, Kihrin. Unfortunately, keeping himself classified in the 'pawn' category means Kihrin must pretend to be everything the prophecies threatened he'd become: the destroyer of all, the sun eater, a mindless, remorseless plague upon the land. It also means finding an excuse to not destroy the people he loves (or any of the remaining Immortals) without arousing suspicion. Kihrin's goals are complicated by the fact that not all of his 'act' is one. His intentions may be sincere, but he's still being forced to grapple with the aftereffects of the corrupted magic ritual that twisted both him and the dragons. Worse, he's now tied to a body that is the literal avatar of a star - a form that is becoming increasingly, catastrophically unstable. All of which means he's running out of time. After all, some stars fade - but others explode"--… (meer)

As the finale to the Chorus of Dragons series, Jen Lyons' The Discord of Gods wraps up an intriguing and far-reaching plot. Not gonna lie- I adore this series. I had hoped that one of my favourite characters would find a measure of redemption. In fact, I used his name for two characters I created for Bravo Fleet, a Star Trek writing group. The longest running one in fact! Alas, it was not to be.

The world-building showcases a creative mind, full of future potential. I cannot wait to read something new by Lyons. She paints a breathtaking, terrifying reality with her words, one filled with demons, dragons, deities, and their titanic conflicts. The intricate structure of the narrative might feel overwhelming to some readers, with its multiple plot points and simultaneous storylines. However, I found that this complexity gives the plot richness and depth.

Overall, The Discord of Gods by Jenn Lyons comes as a captivating read for fans of fantasy. Highly recommended!

****Many thanks to Netgalley and MacMillan-Tor/Forge for providing an egalley in exchange for a fair and honest review. ( )

Very satisfying conclusion to the series. And yes, we do hear dragons sing.

Since I read this entire series as eARCs, and even though these are LONG books, I am going to buy them in hardcover when this book is published. ( )

Nice but rushed
The title of the parts : setting up pieces / gambits suggest a chess board. And that is how i felt while reading it, being dragged around at breakneck speed to every corner of the board.
But alas very few times the different pov the other books have.
Still highly recommended series ( )
