Elizabeth Moon: Crown of Renewal


Moon's "Paksworld" fantasy novels have been among my favourites ever since I first read Sheepfarmer's Daughter. When she returned to this world for the Paladin's Legacy series, of which this is the last volume, I was so excited, I couod hardly wait the long months between the announcement that she had done so, and the publication of the first book of the series.

The series, and particularly this last installment, have lived up to my expectations. Loose ends, apparent inconsistencies and questions from all the previous books have been resolved, and the ending leaves one feeling that all is going to be well in the lands of Aare and Aarenis.

And.... Dorrin Verrekai was one of my best loved characters, next to Paks herself - and her destiny left my eyes wet with joy for the character.

All I could wish is that Moon finds another inspiration to bring her back to the world of Paksenarrion.
