Northstrider.
The Monarchs, the most powerful sacred artists on Cradle, rule with unquestioned authority. They are mysterious and distant, and catching a glimpse of one is privilege enough for a lifetime. To meet one is to come face-to-face with a legend.
Now, they have all gathered in one place, bringing their heirs and greatest students together for a competition to determine whose successor is the best in the world:
The Uncrowned King tournament.
After two excellent books, it's back to the competition/leveling up drudge.
I must admit I liked the last phase of the book, but the rest is merely okay-ish.
Writing quality is improving.
