Book Reviews of In the Service of Dragons IV (In the Service of Dragons, Book 4)
Book Review: The end of a magnificent journey, and an amazing conclusion!
Summary: 5 Stars
In the Service of Dragons #4 is Stanek's crowning achievement and a grand conclusion to a magnificent journey begun with The Kingdoms and the Elves of the Reaches. Eight books later, I was astounded at how well he pulled the varied threads together and wrapped up this epic story of magic, wizards, elves, and dragons.
The characters in this series are exceedingly well portrayed. They have hopes and dreams, they have fears and wants and hungers. Each of the books features alternating storylines, allowing the the reader to see the world of the author's imaging through many different points of view. The changes points of view brings the reader into the utter chaos of this world torn by war on multiple fronts. In the Kingdoms of men, the alliances of old have shattered and Great Kingdom has fallen. In the Reaches of the elves, the elves of the West and East are for the first time at war with each other. And the reader has a front row seat for all the action across many lands.
This book does a wonderful job of bringing everything together from the previous books, all the way back to The Kingdoms and the Elves of the Reaches #1, and answering all the reader's questions. The rousing conclusion and rip-roaring pace provide that this is one of the greatest of the great fantasy series. I love that the story is as much about the changing world as it is about the characters in the world.
Highly, highly recommended.
