A great end to an epic series. Didnt quite reach the 5plus of blood song. But was a satisfying ending and Ryan remains a genius and colossus in this genre

I still feel that no book in this series has come close to the first.

Wow, this book and its predecessor made for much better sequels to Blood Song than the actual sequels.

The author has put everything a Vaelin Fan could possibly want into this book: action, war, battles, duels, tricks, magic, pirates, priests, trials, a wolve, a horse and philosophy.

My favorite line: "...as soon as I find my horse."

Around a 4.5. Thoroughly compelling conclusion to the sequel duology with a returned focus on Vaelin al Sorna.

I loved the first book in this series and liked this one.
It's entertaining and engrossing even if the action is lacking in some parts.
The world building and the character development are as good as they were in the first novel and the plot flows.
I assume there will be other books in this series, this one is recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
