I had intended to delay reading this, as it is the last in the trilogy and I was hoping to force myself into a bit of restraint. It is, unfortunately, like knowing there’s a bag of chips and telling yourself that an apple’s healthier… This is the best fantasy series that I have ever read, and at times transcends the limitations that the genre label sometimes casts. See “Before They Are Hanged” for a review of the characters, and prepare for things to get very dark in this volume! There is a race for the throne, and the usual politicking ensues, but Bayaz has a surprise candidate in mind. In the meantime, Ferro finds her purpose, and a few characters are exposed as being other that what they seem (and that’s part of what makes this a great series). Logan Ninefingers is a significant character is this book, and not always for good reasons. I loved this book, and am sorry to see the series end!
