With King Olin imprisoned and Prince Kendrick slain, the royal twins Barrick and Briony have been forced to flee their homeland. But both families and nations can hide dark and terrible secrets, and even if Barrick and Briony survive learning the astonishing truths at the heart of their own family and of Southmarch itself, they must still find a way to reclaim their kingdom and rescue their home--from traitors, tyrants, a god-king, and even the angry gods themselves.
I'm not sure why, but I like this part much better than the first two in the series. Perhaps it's because I read that awful French book (Au bon roman/A Novel Bookstore) just before this one. In any case, this book is much more like what I expected from Tad Williams. Now I'm really looking forward to reading the last part.
