Review
The five woes are in full swing and seems likely
that the entire land will dissolve into the ocean in the near future. Wilek,
Kal, Trevn, and a few others believe in the impending doom and are planning
evacuations. Meanwhile, international turmoil and the heir war continue
unhindered. Kal’s group continues their dangerous journey to safety and Charlon
schemes to take Lady Zeroah’s place. Will there ever be a time of peace and
safety?
The End of
All Things is part three of book one in King’s
Folly by Jill Williamson. Wow. The epic continues—and it is most certainly
an epic! The layers of characters, the complex plots and subplots, the
religious turmoil, the secrets of the past, the forbidden romance, the
prophecies, and so, so much more. It is a good thing there is a character
index! Although, a person does learn to keep pretty good track of things. But,
wow, this series is amazing!
I did not expect the characters to evacuate the
Five Realms so soon. I thought the author would wait until the last book in the
series since it seemed so final. But the evacuation occurred in book one, part
three. That is not to say that there are not still problems. The five realms
took all their political and religious troubles with them into whatever new
world they discover and colonize. I wonder if there will already be inhabitants
in the new land…
There are so many things in just this part of the
book! So many evil schemes to combat. I can hardly believe what Wilek did to survive
one of them! That part was awesome. The religious aspect is definitely building
up to something. False gods, cults, and drugs are one side and Arman, his holy
book, and the prophetess are the other. I can hardly wait to see how the
conflict climaxes.
I am totally addicted to this series and would
recommend it to those who enjoy New Adult high fantasy.
I received a free copy of this book in exchange
for an honest review.
