The Lair of Bones
The Lair of Bones: The Fourth Book of The Runelords | David Farland
1 post | 2 read | 2 to read
Certain works of fantasy are immediately recognizable as monuments, towering above the rest of the category. They have been written by the likes of Stephen R. Donaldson, Robert Jordan, and Terry Goodkind. Now add to that list David Farland, whose epic fantasy series began with The Runelords, continued in Brotherhood of the Wolf and the New York Times bestseller Wizardborn, and reaches its peak now in The Lair of Bones. Prince Gaborn, the Earth King, has defeated the forces arrayed against him each time before: the magical and human forces marshaled by Raj Ahten, who seeks immortality at any cost and has given up his humanity in trade; and the inhuman, innumerable, insectile hordes of the giant Reavers from under the Earth, whose motives are unknowable, but inimical to human life. Now there must be final confrontations, both on the field of battle, with the supernatural creature that Raj Ahten has become, and underground, in the cavernous homeland of the Reavers, where the sorcerous One True Master who rules them all lies in wait--in the Lair of Bones. The survival of the human race on Earth is at stake. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Well stopping that repeating information thing was short lived because this book falls right back into it -_-. The “main” conflict has been solved but there is more to story still (since I have 5 books) the world felt inconsistent with this one which I found out was an editing issue so I‘m glad it wasn‘t just me not understanding locations and names. Also the narrator who does the audio is so unenthusiastic

Clare-Dragonfly At least they seem to be pretty quick reads! I read a short story by this author once and found it pretty dreadful. 5y
Sweetkokoro @Clare-Dragonfly Actually they aren‘t quick lol, each one is about 500 pages. I‘m only getting through them because I‘m listening to the audiobooks and doing house chores to make it go by faster, each one is around 15-18 hours and I have them on 2x speed because normal is god awfully slow. I‘m not inclined to pick up anything else by this author and I still have one more to go before I done with the ones I own for this set >_ 5y
