I think this might be my favorite Tad Williams book yet. I'm so excited to keep reading the Last King of Osten Ard. I was asked a lot about this book while I was reading it. I think all of Williams's books are like a Jack-in-the-box, slowly cranking the tension and story until the last 5th or so of the book where everything explodes. I love it. His characters are so deep and rich and nuanced. So good.
