Acclaimed author Elizabeth Moon spins gripping, richly imagined epic fantasy novels that have earned comparisons to the work of such authors as Robin Hobb and Lois McMaster Bujold. The mysterious reappearance of magery throughout the land has been met with suspicion, fear, and violence. In the kingdom of Lyonya, Kieri, the half-elven, half-human king, struggles to balance the competing demands of his heritage while fighting a deadly threat to his rule: evil elves linked in some way to the rebirth of magic. Thus Dorrin embarks on a dangerous quest to return these relics of a bygone age to their all-but-mythical place of origin. Crown of Renewal she encounters there will change her in unimaginable ways - and spell doom or salvation for the entire world. What did you love best about Crown of Renewal? Elizabeth Moon is constantly one of them. She doesn't forget about details and weaves a good long tale. Who was your favorite character and why? Paks of course, but she scarce. Sounded very painfully deliberate. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? Any additional comments? Additional comments I follow Moon's twitter and there have been some real world interruptions that can derail a good book. In disappointment I shall return Crown of Renewal the best of all of the Elizabeth Moon book and reread The Deed of Paksinarion trilogy and be soothed and sated. Other recommndations from this author. This seemed a hurry up and finish effort and i have to admit that van dyke Crown of Renewal me as a narrator What did you like best about Crown of Renewal? What did you like least? I like the continuation of the story arc that started with Sheepherder's Daughter. How did the narrator detract from the book? All of the other audio books in the series have a certain pronunciation for the words devised by the author. As in Paks pronounced Crown of Renewal. This narrator threw all of that out and read it in her own way. That is irritating as it breaks Crown of Renewal continuity. Occasionally I was thrown out of the story by trying to figure out what the narrator meant. Do you think Crown of Renewal needs a follow-up book? Why or why not? Yes, there are still questions that need to be answered. Would you recommend this book to a friend? Crown of Renewal knew that had to Crown of Renewal bad news. Right or wrong I've purchased and listened to the previous 4 books excellently narrated by Jennifer van dyke. I enjoyed the wrap up of the multiple story lines. Was a little disappointed with Camwin's story but others more than made up for it. I would recommend especially if you are a big fan of the series. Loooong series, sad to say Crown of Renewal probably would have been a tighter tale as a three book edit, meanwhile it's also an attempt to tie up multiple sprawling plotlines, each of which felt like it ought to take up it's own book.
