The Navigator's Children by Tad Williams digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

The latest saga in the New York Times bestselling world of Osten Ard concludes in the fourth and final Last King of Osten Ard novel.

The Hayholt is besieged by the Norns. Once the home of their immortal brethren, the Sithi, now capital of the kingdom of men, the fabled castle is under attack. And as the world is distracted by this strike against humankind, the Norns’ deathless witch-queen Utuk’ku turns towards the mysterious fateful valley called Tanakirú—the Vale of Mists.

Meanwhile, Queen Miriamele hurries to save the Hayholt and capture the treacherous noble Pasevalles, but arrives to discover the traitor has escaped.

And inside Tanakirú, Vale of Mists, the bond between Prince Morgan and Nezeru, a renegade Norn, has become something deeper and stranger than either of them could have anticipated.  They journey ever deeper to the heart of the valley’s mystery, encountering wonder and horror, and come face to face at last with the ancient secret that has kindled the Norn Queen’s war—a secret that will destroy immortals and humans alike.

“An excellent ending to the series. although quite a hefty tomb, it was read quickly, because the content is so good. In this series, Tad introduced quite a number of new characters and each one was done masterfully and the arc of each character was well developed. The story itself is of epic proportions and everything somehow follows a logical flow until the end, where everything finally fits together and comes into its own. Now a new problem arises. How do you find something this good again”
Smiling Face with Heart-Eyes“Tad Williams is one of the greats - the fantasy genre should put some respect on his NAME. I didn’t think a sequel series could outshine even the original, but this was the most satisfying conclusion that could have been crafted for the series. As always, his prose is beautifully crafted and intricate, the most impeccable writing of anyone in the genre. All of the settings, characters and cultures feel so full and real, with complex motives and emotion. This provided the perfect combination of beloved characters from the original quartet - Simon, Miriamele, Binabik, Tiamak and Eolair, all of my favorites - as well as new characters I grew to love like Morgan, Nezeru and Viyeki. The eventual explanation for the unbeing and the ocean indefinite and eternal was a very interesting twist! I loved that this expanded on the lore of the original series. I just love Tad Williams and will read anything he writes. 10/10 no notes!”
