Springtime morning in Avalle
And I don't care what the priests say;
I'm going down to the river today
On a springtime morning in Avalle.
When I'm all grown up, come what may,
I'll build a boat to carry me away
And the river will take it to Tigana Bay
And the sea even further from Avalle.
Beard's storytelling and Catriana's song made for one of the most powerful scenes I've read in a very long time.

I cannot even name all the emotions I experienced during the course of the final chapter and the epilogue. This was definitely one of the most powerful endings to a book I have ever read.

Hmm, the final battle only now begins and there's a lot that needs to happen in very little space. It'll be interesting to see how Kay handles it.

End of Part 4.
Interesting happenings, new and interesting characters, and it even seems as if the plot is starting to move forward!

And the "Worst character of the book" award goes to a person who was just part of it for a few pages, all the while lying on her deathbed. I rarely get this angry from reading a book.

"There are no wrong turnings. Only paths we had not known we were meant to walk."

"All these stick-like little fingers jabbing and poking away at each other. You've always done that, haven't you? Guess you always will. Until there's nothing left here but Barbadior and Ygrath."
That conversation made it really obvious how easy it must have been for Alberico and Brandin to conquer the Palm.

End of Part 2. Dianora was an interesting POV, even though almost nothing happened during her chapters.

I'm pretty certain there has been more time spent on flashbacks than on the actual storyline. Not that I'm complaining, of course.

Simon Vance is an exceptional voice actor, but unfortunately also very good at providing ridiculously irritating voices for some characters.
