Martha Wells
Book 3 in the The Fall of Ile-Rien
Wrapping up the trilogy, Tremaine and her cohort (including her newly returned father) take the battle to the Guardier. They have a theory about how the Guardier sorcery works and are continually discovering more about the staging worlds that are used for transport. Simultaneously, they are increasingly surprised by how much they do know. Tremaine, ever the confident schemer, has an idea that they will win before others have that confidence, so she also begins thinking about life after. And those decisions are nearly as difficult as the ones made in battle. All to say, I appreciate how Wells doesn't ignore the interpersonal and emotional weight that comes with conflict. A nice completion to a world building fantasy trilogy.
4 stars (out of 4)
