Publisher's Summary
The New York Times best-selling world of Osten Ard returns in the third Last King of Osten Ard novel, as threats to the kingdom loom....
The High Throne of Erkynland is tottering, its royal family divided and diminished. Queen Miriamele has been caught up in a brutal rebellion in the south and thought to have died in a fiery attack. Her grandson Morgan, heir to the throne, has been captured by one of Utuk'ku's soldiers in the ruins of an abandoned city. Miriamele’s husband, King Simon, is overwhelmed by grief and hopelessness, unaware that many of these terrible things have been caused by Pasevalles, a murderous traitor inside Simon’s own court at the Hayholt.
Meanwhile, a deadly army of Norns led by the ageless, vengeful Queen Utuk’ku, has swept into Erkyland and thrown down the fortress of Naglimund, slaughtering the inhabitants and digging up the ancient grave of Ruyan the Navigator so that Utuk'ku can use the Navigator’s fabled armor to call up the spirit of Hakatri, the evil Storm King's brother.
Even the Sithi, fairy-kin to the Norns, are helpless to stop Utuk'ku's triumph as her armies simultaneously march on the Hayholt and force their way into the forbidden, ogre-guarded valley of Tanakirú—the Narrowdark—where a secret waits that might bring Simon's people and their Sithi allies salvation—or doom.

Long winded and unsatisfying
I waited seemingly forever for this “final” book and am incredibly disappointed. It is full of unnecessarily long descriptions, soliloquies and rants that should/could have been edited out to make a much tighter book. I hated King Simon by the end due to his endless snivelling and whining. Most other characters ended up being cardboard with no character development at all. Really could have been so much better and much, much shorter.

A solid story as always
Some of the character's voices were a bit grading at times or ran together, making it a bit confusing at times. But overall, very pleased with the overall performance and story. I'm looking forward to book 4.

Great!
Absolutely burned through these Tad Williams Osten Ard books, couldn't stop listening, and this title is no exception.
I really can't wait till November for the fourth book, but a few more months sure beats decades.
