In The Kingdoms of Thorn and Bone, Greg Keyes has crafted a brilliant saga of magic, excursion, and love set against a backdrop of clashing empires and an ancient, reawakened evil. Now, along with the Given birth to Queen, Keyes brings his epic to a masterly close, gathering the strands of story and personality into a stunning climax that both completes and transcends all of that has truly gone before.
The Briar Ruler is deceased, and the globe itself uses him to mess up. Aspar White, wounded and tired, must attempt one last quest to save lots of the forest and people he enjoys, but he has little hope of success.
Anne Dare finally sits on the throne of Crotheny, but for how long? The Church, now led by the corrupt and powerful Marché Hespero, has declared a holy warfare against her, offering the ruler of Hansa the pretext he needs to unleash his vast might on the young queen and her unready army.
But Hansa is the least of Anne’s concerns. The Hellrune, warfare seer of Hansa, hits at her through eye-sight and prophecy. The Kept–last of the elder Skasloi lords–weaves his own dark webs. Anne’s educator and ally in the sedos world might also be her most detrimental enemy, and Anne’s own installation strength compels her toward madness.
Surviving these potential issues and mastering her eldritch skills are merely prelude to the true struggle. There are many–some with power matching or even exceeding Anne’s own–who are prepared to kill in order to seize control. For whoever rests after the throne will have the ultimate command to effect a result of the world’s salvation–or its apocalypse.
