The Orchard has learned to dream- but some dreams refuse to stay gentle. In the breathtaking conclusion to The Thorn Orchard Saga, the world that once bled and bloomed now stands on the edge of peace-and the price of remembering it. When Seris Arlen returns to a valley reborn, the Orchard breathes in color, the river speaks in light, and creation itself asks to be forgiven. Beside her stands Caelum-the man the Orchard made, the keeper it learned to love, and the last witness to its mercy. Together, they must teach a sentient world the difference between power and kindness, desire and devotion, worship and love. As gods fade and memory floods the land, the Orchard asks one final question: Can peace endure when the world remembers everything? The Orchard's Reckoning is a lush, poetic romantasy about mercy after myth-where love becomes philosophy, endings bloom into beginnings, and the earth itself learns to breathe again. For readers of Sarah J. Maas, Hannah Whitten, and Tasha Suri-a haunting, sensual finale of sentient magic, lyrical prose, and the courage to choose gentleness at the end of the world.
