Publisher's Summary

The long-awaited continuation of one of the greatest fantasy trilogies ever written.

The world was nearly destroyed, but now knows hope again. At the end of Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn, Ineluki the Storm King, an undead spirit of horrifying, demonic power, came within moments of stopping Time itself and obliterating humankind.

He was defeated by a coalition of mortal men and women joined by his own deathless descendants, the Sithi. In the wake of the Storm King's fall, Ineluki's loyal minions, the Norns, retreat north to Nakkiga, an ancient citadel which holds a priceless artefact known as The Heart of What Was Lost.

They are pursued by the army of Duke Isgrimnur who is determined to wipe out the Norns for all time.

The two armies will soon clash in a battle so strange and deadly, so wracked with dark enchant¬ment, that it threatens to destroy not just one side but quite possibly all.

Continuing the Saga

Was a must read for me in continuing the saga. Not really deserving of the ratings of original books

Great read

The story is really engaging and the way the book is "split" is a great way to give a deeper perspective on the entire saga. I really enjoyed this, and look forward to catching up on the next trilogy shortly.

boring and hard to keep listening

I just kept waiting for my attention to be captured, however I couldn't keep my focus on the story as it was not very engaging. The endless dialogue with the wispy voiced norns made it impossible to tell which part I was up to... I honestly couldn't tell different chapters from one another. sorry for the negative review.
