About this listen

From award-winning author E. J. Mellow comes the third and final installment in the Mousai series, following a young woman torn between the man she loves and the kingdom she calls home.

Within the world of Aadilor sits the hidden Thief Kingdom, a land overflowing with magic and mayhem. There the Mousai, a trio of deadly sorceresses, serve the reclusive Thief King, delivering punishment and pleasure to the masses.

Arabessa Bassette is the leader of the Mousai, conducting their powerful gifts with unyielding precision. But behind her mask of control burns a desire to forge her own path—along with a tumultuous relationship with Zimri D’Enieu, her father’s right hand and the man who’s held her heart since they were children. When an unexpected invitation to vie for the Thief King’s throne pulls her into a deadly competition, Arabessa’s composure cracks as she finds herself with an impossible choice—give up her greatest love or her greatest ambition.

But sacrifices loom large in the Thief Kingdom, for the quest for power always comes at a price. With her and Zimri’s future hanging in the balance, Arabessa must decide if she’s willing to pay it.

Welcome to the world of Aadilor, where love is found between cracks and the most mesmerizing symphonies carry lethal notes. Dare to play?

Critic reviews

“An epic conclusion to author E. J. Mellow's fantasy trilogy, 'The Mousai', the story telling narration talents of Madeline Lake and Tony Roberts provide the listener with a truly memorable 'theatre of the mind' experience.”Midwest Book Review

“This character-driven entry in the series is as fast-paced as the previous books, and romance abounds on every page. Fans of the Wheel of Time series should try this trilogy.”Booklist

Great conclusion to a amazing trilogy

This was not my favourite book of the trilogy and I had to make myself read up to about 60% of it. However, I can't deny that it was Beautifully written, the world the author created is magical, enchanting and dark, even crazy. The characters are enticing. And, even though we know what the end will be the way it was executed was surprising and gripping too. Love that all the sisters are involved in some way and that we got many closures. The spiciness went from half to a full chilly pepper.
Totally worth the price, but luckily I got ku and it comes with free audio (win win).

Perfect ending for The Mosaic!

The last installment of this trilogy is my least favourite of the 3 Mousai books, but that said I still loved the detail of Aadilor & all the characters. All loose ends neatly wrapped up. I only found the voices put on for other characters in each chapter a bit distracting - I'd have preferred the male voice for each of the male characters & vice versa, rather than the way it was actually recorded. But that's just my preference. Overall good story, completing a great trilogy.
