What was one of the most memorable moments of Heir of Novron? The fact that the story continued on without any surprises or unbelievable twists that disrupted what had been previously told in the story. What made the experience of listening to Heir of Novron the most enjoyable? He slipped up in the voices once in awhile during extended dialogue, but his reading really brought the colorful world and its distinct characters to life. Again, the narrator was a huge contributor to making this series snappy and enjoyable. But the author does a great job of wrapping everything up in a natural way, with a coda that satisfies the fan's desire to know what happens to the characters after the adventures are over. Just look at the TV shows Lost or Battlestar Galactica.

It's really hard to end a series, especially one with the type of characters that the reader can invest herself in and a world where fans can easily imagine further adventures for the beloved cast.

Sullivan wraps up the adventures of Royce and Hadrian (Riyeria) and the arc of the story satisfies the fans: the (surviving) characters remain true to themselves even as they move on with their lives the mystery driving the series from the beginning is explained (and enough clues are there for even me to figure out most of it ahead of time, but not in such a way that the characters seemed like dunces) and the journey to the end is packed with adventure and humor. I had a great time listening to this book, and I highly recommend this book.Ī satisfying end to the Riyeria Chronicles I thoroughly enjoyed the narration, and I hope to listen to more books from the narrator. Tim Gerad Reynolds narrates like a grandfather telling a story to children, and does it so effectively. Use of language is great, it flows beautifully and very enjoyable. There are some surprises in the book for good measure. Humor made me laugh, depth of characters made me feel for their sorrow and triumphs and felt that this book will give reader an emotional ride while telling a story spanning thousands of years. This book had me hooked from the start, and it is one of those book which will entice you to take the long route home hoping for more traffic.

These are pretty big names and this book has elements from all these books in it. One of the last battles reminded me of a combat from 'First Law Series'. ASOIAF for the back stabbing / political intrigue and share number of characters getting chopped off. It has shades of LOTR (Remember, you shall not pass!). It has everything one could look for in epic fantasy.
