As Katharine says in her Author's Note, "Despite what you may have seen or heard",this is not the last book as such, but rather part one of a two part end (the Silver Mage will conclude). As you can imagine therefore, little is actually tied up, and in fact we get some new (and some returning but now able to speak and act) characters - and species - to add to the drama and move the plot on. (The mystery runes on the dwarven staff are obviously to play a key role and are referenced many times in this book to my delight). This isn't a criticism; I was concerned that matters would wrap up too pat and quickly and am glad that there is one more book and I appreciate the new characters and what they add. In addition matters develop and progress satisfactorily with the returning main characters, rounding them out, and I get the impression that we are building towards several big set pieces in the finale to get them all settled in the elven city of Rinbaladelan - which is where I assume it will end. My only unfulfilled, as yet, hope is that we will see more of Niffa, Jahdo and Carra (my personal favourite). In particular the map of Rinbaladelan, last seen being hidden in Rhodda's library by Evandar, must surely play some key part, and Carra/Bellyra's love of history must discover it?
