The stunning second novel in Tad Williams' classic fantasy series, Memory, Sorrow and Thorn, set in the fantasy world of Osten Ard.

Following a brutal civil war, Osten Ard has been crushed under the rule of the two villainous High Kings. A single hope remains: if the rebels can find the three swords of legend - Memory, Sorrow and Thorn - they might be able to bring the Storm King and evil King Elias down.

Once but a humble kitchen boy, Simon is now Simon Snowlock, dragonslayer and bearer of the mythical sword Thorn. But Simon is more alone than ever before: his friends have been imprisoned, and his liege lord, Prince Joshua, has been exiled. And the Storm King may also be in possession of one of the swords....

A single chance remains: if Simon can deliver Thorn to Joshua and lead his followers to the Stone of Farewell, the rebels may be able to muster the forces necessary to rise up against Elias and the Storm King. But no one knows where the Stone of Farewell is. Or, indeed, what it is....

Magnificent continuation of ‘the Dragon-bone Chair’. This book has left the bitter-sweet aftertaste of an unmistakable sadness. I’m very much looking forward ‘to Green Angel Tower’ in order to finish this profound series of Ted Williams’s works in 2 measured takes;)

Struggled with this one. Invested enough into it that I need to do book 3 now *sigh*. Here we go again...

Pretty Slow

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
I tried to keep going but the main character is just not likeable as a pathetic complaining baby locked in a adolescent body.
every scrape of story progresses is soooop painful full of so many names and places and dam songs ..... I just gave up trying so hard to get thru the story.
You may like a slow story but the read time of 30plis hours per book ..... half way thru I wanted to leap out a window in boredom

50 hrs thru and I can't go on
