Lost Truth by Dawn Cook
4.0
Just when I was worried that this fantasy series might descend into mediocrity, it presents the final novel of the quartet in fine form. Dawn Cook (aka Kim Harrison) concludes the series with, perhaps the best book in the batch, tying together a bunch of plot strings into one cohesive whole.
At the fore-front of the issues needing to be resolved was the love triangle, of course and I, along with most readers I assume, was happy to see the result. And thankfully, this occurred fairly early in this novel, allowing the greater events surrounding Alissa’s true self and her role in the world to finally emerge. There is also a complex but satisfying resolution to the fate of the masters, the Hold, etc. After reading this concluding volume, it is now evident just how well-planned all four books were and I appreciate the set much more now than I had at the end of book 3.
This won’t go down as my favorite epic fantasy series but overall, was very much worth reading.
