The Might is the epic conclusion to The Raven Rings series and wow this does not disappoint! Hirka is an absolutely phenomenal character and proves that in this story once again. On the flip side, Rime, while still a wonderful character, feels more relatable to the everyday person, he has his flaws and issues and he's vulnerable. This series has been one of the best fantasy series I have read and this book keeps that going!

Jag har alltid haft en kluven inställning till avslutande delar i serier. Alltid har jag velat veta hur det slutar, hur författaren knyter ihop trådarna, men också haft en ovilja att faktiskt avsluta och därmed skiljas från karaktärer, världar eller något annat som gjort att jag läst vidare.
Som helhet betraktat är Korpringarna den mäktigaste trilogi jag läst på bra länge. Huvudkaraktärerna - våra outsiders Hirka och Rime - är synnerligen vältecknade och komplexa personer. Och tack som fan för att vi slipper ytterligare en kärlekstriangel! Världbyggandet är suveränt och vävs skickligt ihop med hur karaktärerna agerar.
Evna är en bra avslutande del (även om jag gillar bok två -Röta- bäst) och trådarna knyts skickligt ihop. Det är ett satans driv och ös i berättelsen utan att för den sakens skull kännas stressande. Som läsare går det att slappna av i vetskapen att författaren vet vad hon sysslar med. Att jag sedan hisnar under läsningen av andra orsaker är såklart bara att applådera, haha!
Letar du efter en verkligt genomarbetad, bra och fascinerande fantasyberättelse ska du kolla in Korpringarna. Jag vågar i det närmaste lova att du inte blir besviken.

I think this was the first time ever I've read a fantasy trilogy and loved the ending. It wasn't rushed or felt wrong. It was just the perfect ending to a great story.
This third book of The Ravenrings (there's now an English translation of the first volume: [b:Odin's Child|54303436|Odin's Child (The Raven Rings #1)|Siri Pettersen|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1602419144l/54303436._SY75_.jpg|25479041]) was an immensely enjoyable and satisfying read. I loved the first book and unfortunately couldn't really get into book two, but it was all worth it because of this last installment of the series. Great work of fiction!

Reread #1: This blew me away the same exact way as when reading it for the first time. A truly epic finale of a great epic fantasy series.
---------------------
I think there is no better way how to end the year than with a great book. Siri Pettersen has overcome my expectations that were already set very high after the first two installments of the trilogy. Is that even possible??
A story that surprises you in every chapter, great character development and world-building (I love how the author did not try to avoid social problems in it), impossible to stop reading (managed to swallow this in two days) and of course, withdrawal feeling when reading the last sentence. What do you want more from a book? Consider yourself warned though.
Thank you for this awesome ride, Siri. Raven Rings are one of the best fantasy books I read at least in the last five years.
