by Jane Lindskold
This book rounds out the Firekeeper series, and gives it a satisfying ending without wrapping up every last thing in a neat bow. In this book the renewed contact with the Old World and the re-emergence of magic bring about new conflicts and creative resolutions. I quite admired the way the series has a meta-plot centered around the physical and cosmological opening up of Lindskold's world. I also liked the way the series isn't about epic conflicts of Good and Evil; it's about societies, cultures, and nations confronting each other and how to solve the problems that arise.
