 È finita anche la quarta e penultima parte del mio viaggio nel mondo degli Antichi. Sicuramente non raggiunge i picchi delle prime 3 trilogie ma quel velo di tristezza e malinconia che si prova alla fine di una saga c'è stato anche qui. Mi sono affezionata molto ai personaggi (tranne Thymara non se ne può più figlia mia). I draghi sono scritti alla perfezione, forse i migliori di cui abbia mai letto. Nel complesso, tra i suoi alti e bassi, mi mancherà viaggiare tra i fiumi e gli alberi delle Giungle della Pioggia 💙
 
P.S. chi me la da la forza di leggere l'ultima trilogia? Penso che piangerò alla prima parola di Fitz 😂

Malta and Reyn reach Kelsingra, where they hope a dragon will heal their son. Sintara is attacked on her way to Kelsingra, where she is nursed back to health after Thymara is able to unlock the mysteries of the Silver well. Then the dragons go to Chalced to avenge themselves upon the Duke, who has been eager for dragon parts. We finally get a battle with dragons! They defeat the Duke and also save Chassim and Selden, who were his prisoners. Chassim makes a deal with the dragons and becomes the ruler of Chalced. Hest meets a bad but deserved end. We get a bit more of Althea, Brashen, and Paragon at the end of the book. Overall, a great series but I'm ready to get back to Buck and see how Fitz and the Fool are doing.
