Summary

As Marat's siege engine bores through the Tower， erupting inside ringdoms and leaving chaos in its wake， Senlin can do nothing but observe the mayhem from inside the belly of the beast。 Caught in a charade， Senlin desperately tries to sabotage the rampaging Hod King， even as Marat's objective grows increasingly clear。 The leader of the zealots is bound for the Sphinx's lair and the unimaginable power it contains。 

In the city under glass at the Tower's summit， Adam discovers a utopia where everyone inexplicably knows the details of his past。 As Adam unravels the mystery of his fame， he soon discovers the crowning ringdom conceals a much darker secret。

Aboard the State of Art， Edith and her crew adjust to the reality that Voleta has awoken from death changed。 She seems to share more in common with the Red Hand now than her former self。 While Edith wars for the soul of the young woman， a greater crisis looms: They will have to face Marat on unequal footing and with Senlin caught in the crossfire。 

And when the Bridge of Babel is finally opened， and the Brick Layer's true ambition revealed， neither they nor the Tower will ever be the same again。

The incredible final book in the phenomenon fantasy series described as "future classics" follows one man's dangerous journey through a labyrinthine world and the mysteries he uncovers along the way （Los Angeles Times）。

Christian Galano ，

4。5 stars！A great conclusion to a beloved series。 Mr。 Bancroft created such an original and imaginative story that would undeniably leave a mark in the fantasy fiction genre for many years。 I received an early advanced copy of this book from the publisher for review， and I’m so blessed to have read this book before it’s publication date。 Thank you Orbit！The only thing I didn’t like about this book was the beginning。 The first part of the book was super slow， and although I understand that everyt 4。5 stars！A great conclusion to a beloved series。 Mr。 Bancroft created such an original and imaginative story that would undeniably leave a mark in the fantasy fiction genre for many years。 I received an early advanced copy of this book from the publisher for review， and I’m so blessed to have read this book before it’s publication date。 Thank you Orbit！The only thing I didn’t like about this book was the beginning。 The first part of the book was super slow， and although I understand that everything about it was necessary to the plot， I felt like it was too long and provided too many details that could’ve been shortened。Finishing the first part， the second and third parts of the book were more exciting and thrilling。 I was literally on edge， wondering how everything would end。 The stakes were much higher as Senlin and the crew fight for the survival of the Tower。 This book had me pondering and wanting for more， to the point where I have to try and digest everything that was happening。 It was so imaginative and creative， I really wished it provided us illustrations to help with all the imagery。 Edith， Voleta， Iren， and Byron definitely stole the plot， and I’m glad that we had more adventures with them on this final book。Overall， the series was very well done！ Never in my life have I highlighted so many words and sentences in books before， and I’ll definitely be using this one as my reference when I write my own book。 The pacing and execution were great， the plot so well-organized， and the fighting scenes in the end were enthralling…I really worried about the characters’ fate。 I didn’t want any of them to die！The ending felt incomplete， but it was necessary， and I wouldn’t have it any other way。 It pushed the realness of human emotions and reminds us that the future can be so uncertain。 I really did not expect the sci-fi elements to it， what happened to the zenith of the Tower， and provided us with more stories to ponder later on; I sense a hint of a sequel to this series in the future， but I could be wrong。 To me， however， the ending provided a great conclusion to the characters and more growth for their future！Very well done。 I will read anything that Mr Josiah Bancroft will write in the future。 Highly recommend this series。 。。。more

More like 4。5 stars。Josiah Bancroft’s prose and character work were unsurprisingly fantastic in this final book。 The action and tension were balanced perfectly， and there were multiple moments when I cried， gasped， and （internally） cheered。I’m still processing—and am admittedly conflicted about—the ending。

I'm really sad to be done with this book， but it was a very satisfying conclusion to a terrific series！ Josiah Bancroft has a fantastic imagination。 The things we see in these books are extremely original， but without sacrificing logic at all。 The writing is masterful， and each character is fully multidimensional。 I am a huge fan of Edith， she really comes into her own in this final book in the series。 There's a sense of being on the brink of doom throughout， and an expectation that the best lai I'm really sad to be done with this book， but it was a very satisfying conclusion to a terrific series！ Josiah Bancroft has a fantastic imagination。 The things we see in these books are extremely original， but without sacrificing logic at all。 The writing is masterful， and each character is fully multidimensional。 I am a huge fan of Edith， she really comes into her own in this final book in the series。 There's a sense of being on the brink of doom throughout， and an expectation that the best laid plans will probably not work out anything like intended。 By now though， there's also some trust that somehow， sometimes in ways we weren't expecting at all， things do eventually turn out for the best。 I'll be watching for whatever Mr。 Bancroft dreams up next！ 。。。more

The Fall of Babel is a satisfying ending to a spectacular series， but is better read back-to-back for it to have a better impact。I read the previous novel， The Hod King， back in 2019 when it was first published and have since forgotten most of what happened。 I read some spoiler-filled reviews and the summary at the beginning of The Fall of Babel， but it wasn’t enough。 This series is one I would recommend reading back-to-back or at least without a significant amount of time in between each novel The Fall of Babel is a satisfying ending to a spectacular series， but is better read back-to-back for it to have a better impact。I read the previous novel， The Hod King， back in 2019 when it was first published and have since forgotten most of what happened。 I read some spoiler-filled reviews and the summary at the beginning of The Fall of Babel， but it wasn’t enough。 This series is one I would recommend reading back-to-back or at least without a significant amount of time in between each novel。 The characters are at the heart of this story and having forgotten key details， I missed out on emotional moments throughoutThe Fall of Babel。Bancroft’s writing is as flawlessly lyrical as in his previous novels。 As I mentioned in my review of The Hod King， each sentence， paragraph， and chapter are meticulously written to weave together an adventure tale that sheds light on more serious topics like， slavery， abuse， the disenfranchisement of a people， and the mistreatment of women。One slight criticism I have of The Fall of Babel is the lack of Senlin in the novel。 The Fall of Babel is told from multiple POVs， which isn’t a surprise considering all the characters who have been introduced and promoted to main characters。 However， Senlin has always been and will always be my favourite so to see so little of him was slightly disappointing。The ending of The Fall of Babel was unexpected and satisfying。 Bancroft ended his series while also leaving the door open for future novels or a spinoff series。Overall， The Fall of Babel is a fantastic conclusion to The Books of Babel series。 This series is full of eccentric characters， mystery and intrigue， and adventure all while touching on more serious topics in ways that feel meaningful。***I received an arc from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

4。25/5The Fall of Babel by Josiah Bancroft is a fitting end to a brilliant series First of all huge thanks to the author and publishers for accepting my request in Netgalley and it goes without saying that this review is my unbiased opinion。Quick Summary: The Fall of Babel is an answer to all the questions raised throughout the series。。。。 What is the purpose of this tower ？ Where is Adam ？ Who is Sphinx and Brick layer ？ and most important of them all Will Senlin reunite with his wife ？WHAT WORK 4。25/5The Fall of Babel by Josiah Bancroft is a fitting end to a brilliant series First of all huge thanks to the author and publishers for accepting my request in Netgalley and it goes without saying that this review is my unbiased opinion。Quick Summary: The Fall of Babel is an answer to all the questions raised throughout the series。。。。 What is the purpose of this tower ？ Where is Adam ？ Who is Sphinx and Brick layer ？ and most important of them all Will Senlin reunite with his wife ？WHAT WORKED FOR ME IN THIS BOOK:Prose: Like the previous works by Josiah Bancroft， the prose in this book were pure brilliant。 He outdone himself。Answers: As the author says in the beginning of this book。 All the questions raised in the previous books were answered。 Most of the reveals delivers the impact the plot requires。Final Act: Everything comes together in the last 100 pages to make an explosive finale that will make you feel extremely happy that you stick with this series。WHAT DIDN'T WORKED FOR ME IN THIS BOOK:I felt that the pacing was quite slow in some parts。 As a result it didn't quite held my attention here and there。Another nitpick is that there's just very little of our favourite Headmaster。 I'm not saying there's barely anything of Senlin。 But his page time is somewhat lesser than other characters and it affected me since I'm a Senlin simp 😅。 Probably wouldn't affect other's reading experience。FINAL WORD:Josiah Bancroft definitely stuck the landing。 The Fall of Babel effectively concludes The Books of Babel series。 。。。more

the worldWhat I find fascinating about this series is just how expansive it is。 The first book is told solely through Tom Senlin’s （3rd person） perspective and follows a rather linear progression of events。 We go from point a to point b and so on。 There are occasional flashbacks， but for the most part it’s an excellently linear story filled with great， descriptive writing and characters。 However， as the series progresses， we start to understand more about the Tower and see it through the perspec the worldWhat I find fascinating about this series is just how expansive it is。 The first book is told solely through Tom Senlin’s （3rd person） perspective and follows a rather linear progression of events。 We go from point a to point b and so on。 There are occasional flashbacks， but for the most part it’s an excellently linear story filled with great， descriptive writing and characters。 However， as the series progresses， we start to understand more about the Tower and see it through the perspectives of other characters。 And as our understanding of the Tower grows， so too does our bewilderment of it。 In The Fall of Babel， the ringdoms and structure are pretty much all known。 Yet there’s one question that pops up: “What’s the actual purpose？ Is it really just a trap？ Is it a vacation spot that went wrong？ A place to start over？” All of these things can be true， and none of them can be true。 It all depends on the person and how they arrived to the Tower and how they acted under the various circumstances。We learn little about the world outside of the Tower， but that’s not the point。 It’s there。 It exists。 But the Tower is a world unto itself。 As stated just above， by the time we’ve gotten to the final book we know the basics of most everything。 And yet somehow there’s still that little bit that we weren’t aware of。 Specifically， we finally get to explore the top of the Tower。 This is where the book opens， with a large section from Adam’s perspective。 It’s pretty fun seeing him explore this ringdom that’s been a mystery even to him。 And it’s also rewarding to finally learn why his eye was taken as payment back in one of the lower ringdoms。charactersWe meet a variety of characters throughout the series。 Some start as villains but become allies。 Some start as villains and remain villains。 Two things remain true in the philosophy of the series （okay wow， that sounds deeper than it actually is）: 1） Anyone is capable of a change of heart if they put the work into it， while also accepting that people are not obligated to forgive and/or forget。 2） The most unlikely of things or people can cause major changes。 These are shown throughout virtually all of the characters。 The Senlin of the last book is not the same as the Senlin of the first。Specifically in The Fall of Babel， we dive into a lot of minds。 What I found interesting from this was the underlying implication that no one needs to be an enigma。 In the first book， we hear of different， mysterious sounding people: The Red Hand， the Arm of the Sphinx， the Sphinx， and so on。 They have this inhuman quality to them that makes them larger than life。 Yet in the last book， we’re reading from these characters’ points of view。 （Well， not the Sphinx， but the Sphinx is demystified。） And they’re just people。 People with pasts who found their way to the Tower。 People who are trying to right past wrongs or attempting to navigate feelings for each other。 Literally everyone is just faking it。 This last book in the series firmly cements the fact that these characters are just people。 Incredible， fascinating people。 But they are not indestructible forces。writing & structureThe Fall of Babel—much like its predecessors—is told in a very descriptive style。 It really immerses you into the world。 It’s one of those books where you feel like you’re actually there。 Now， this book is long。 However， the writing absolutely helps the pacing flow at a steady rate。 It’s descriptive but knows when to move along。 I really appreciated that the book didn’t just feel like one 600+ page climax。The overall structure is a rather nonlinear one。 Different perspectives will start at different times。 I didn’t find it difficult to follow， but it is something to be aware of when reading。Oh and of course， the chapter epigraphs are always a delight。overallWell， I feel again that I’ve said nothing in many words。 This book was a joy to read。 Does it answer all of the questions from the series？ No。 It answers a lot， though。 Does it raise more questions that aren’t answered？ Yes。 And I love that。 It’s incredibly open-ended。 While this might bug some readers， I thought the book did a great job of making it open-ended while still feeling like…well…an ending。 We ascended the Tower， and it was breathtaking。（I received an ARC from the publisher。 Thank you。） 。。。more

The Fall of Babel is the long-awaited final volume in Bancroft’s fantasy quartet， the Books of Babel， one of the most amazing and creative fantasy adventures to ever grace the printed page。 Those travelers arriving here first without first venturing through the other three books are doing themselves no major favors and missing a huge amount of storyline and character development。 Don’t expect the brief introduction to suffice。 It won’t。Set in the Biblical land of Ur sits the works famous Tower o The Fall of Babel is the long-awaited final volume in Bancroft’s fantasy quartet， the Books of Babel， one of the most amazing and creative fantasy adventures to ever grace the printed page。 Those travelers arriving here first without first venturing through the other three books are doing themselves no major favors and missing a huge amount of storyline and character development。 Don’t expect the brief introduction to suffice。 It won’t。Set in the Biblical land of Ur sits the works famous Tower of Babel， here rather reimagined。 Surrounded by a fair or flea market miles deep， it is that treasured goal of every traveler and dreamer the world over， including， that is， Selin， headmaster of a school， and his wife， Marya。 They soon become separated in the giant flea market and Selin enters the giant tower in search of her。 But this Tower is so broad that it each level hosts a kingdom or ringdom as they are known。 Most of these ringdoms and there’s some 64 of them for good measure are ruled by feudal aristocratics。All the ringdoms are connected by allegiance to the Sphinx， a shadowy figure who provides technology to the ringdoms from plumbing to electrical to hovering craft that glide from one kingdom’s port to another。 The kingdoms are Also seeded with the Sphinx’s wakemen， people altered with engines instead of arms and the like。As this volume of the quartet opens， the hods who walk the dark stairways in the center of the tower are some in open revolt with one having enlisted wakemen to his side and having built a giant burrowing craft， the Hod King， to tunnel through the ringdoms。 Our hero， the mild mannered schoolmaster Selin is a prisoner aboard this mole。Meanwhile， Selin’s friends are in the Sphinx’s flagship， having rescued Selin’s wife and child， and now bent on securing paintings the Sphinx left in each Ringdom with a secret embedded code because the entire tower is unstable and the energy erupting within rivals the sun。 Each of the shipmates are startlingly unique from the Captain Edith with an engine for an arm to the giantess Iren to the half stag half man to the former Red Hand， the most feared man in all the ringdoms。 Not to be outdone， acrobat and pickpocket Voleta is among them， but changed so that her batteries need recharging and vials if the Sphinx’s medium must always be at the ready for her injections。 She’s on the cusp though if disappearing into the mists of time。But this volume opens with none of that。 It’s Voleta’s brother Adam’s story as he enters the topmost ringdom and ascends to near heaven into gardens and perfection。 Of course， in such a place strangers are not welcome and he must be tried by a people with nothing better to do than to consume movies and make biographs about people like Adam。The world of this amazing tower just keeps getting more and more amazing。 Nevertheless， as the crew of the Sphinx’s flagship meets with the crew of the Hod King the battles are so ferocious that there is little time to marvel at the sights。 Like all three other books in the quartet， this is first class fantasy with all the tension and excitement you could want。 。。。more
