Tad Williams' second books are always so freaking good. He of course still rights slow but the politics, love, and betrayal continue to ramp up.

The prince is continuing his journey in Qar territory, led by an uncontrollable urge to continue into ebony territory where he must face god(s) knows what.

The princess has been lead to “safety” by the master of arms, Shaso.

The Xis king is preparing to invade from the south and Qar are preparing to invade from the North and certain Gods have plans of their own. I know the the last books are going to be epic!

I took off a star because the last 100 pages or so started to really get boring to me when I'd rather end on a higher note, but a great story nonetheless.
