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.

“This one is a bit hard to rate for me, since I don't feel that this is a "three star" book but using the goodre*ds rating it unfortunately is. For me it doesn't really reach the 3.5/5 star rating for a couple of reasons... - some plotlines feel underwhelming - some plotlines seems a bit too long, but timeline wise it's for the better - everyone seems to be alive. I enjoyed the Simon and Miriamele, false deaths. But then Josua was revealed to be alive again, in the final chapters. Josua being alive doesn't really bring anything strong to the plot, but once again might be revisited in the future books. - the many worlds twist and having a sci-fi-ish element in this book kinda worked and honestly quite liked it... as long as them don't delve like the big 2 comics into the alternate worlds too much - I feel the original trilogy is a bit more tighter plotwise in their final book (especially to the last part of this book feels like an extended epilogue + a tease of what's to come... this one has too many threads that could be picked up in the future (which could be good or bad, it depends on you) but all in all it still a very good book, great character moments and a quite satisfying conclusion to the Osten Ard for now. Splintered Sun, a short novel with.. 300k+ words is a prequel is being released soontm.”
