A review by thejdizzler
The Last Light of the Sun by Guy Gavriel Kay

3.0

Guy Gavriel Kay is at his best when he writes about people. Not about melodramatic bullshit that filled most of this book. This was a story about change, the passing of a mantel from father to son, the fading of an age into history. But really this was a story about Bern Thorkellson and his father. And I wish that could have been richer. I did not find the retelling of "The Ballad of the White Horse" very compelling, or the mysticism of the pseudo-Welsh storyline. More Bern, more Thorkell, more Radaby.
