Summary: More than a great conclusion, great writing. Period.
Comment: With this, the last of the Finders Stone Trilogy I can say that I am actually sad to see it end. This is something that all to often eludes me with Fantasy trilogies. Here we have great characters, a great plot line and great pacing. With the 3rd book we find that Finder, unlike the impression that we are given at the end of the first book, is not really repentant for what he has done, and sees Alias as his greatest creation even though he calls her his "daughter". It takes a small halfling and some friends to show him the destruction his vanity almost causes again. And while I am glad to see that our favorite characters from the first book are back, I am also glad to see that the focus of this book is on the redemption of Finder and the troubles he goes through to get to that point. I was also pleased to see that Dragonbait was more fully developed and the great character that he turned out to be. Too often in the fantasy genre we see Paladins as strict, unbending followers of the codes of their God's, often to detriment of everyone around them in their arrogance. Here we are given a being totally devout in his faith and yet went through some amazing trials to have that faith tempered by wisdom, and yet still has a sense of humor and common sense. I think here we see what Paladins were meant to be, and not the easy literary fundamentalists they have become. Kudos all the way around. A very easy recommendation to anyone looking for a good book.

Summary: ...and now the conclusion.
Comment: In "Azure Bonds", we met Alias the sell sword, and her "soul brother" Dragonbait. It also introduced the Nameless Bard and the only known halfling bard, the irrepressible Olive Ruskettle. In "The Wyvern's Spur", Olive helps us to learn Nameless is not nameless after all. So, what adventures call for our intrepid heroes? Only the return of the Darkbringer himself: Moander.
Akabar bel Akesh, a mage of no small water, returns from his Turmish homeland to aid Alias and Dragonbait. To make matters worse, Moander has improved his minions since last he set foot on Faerûn. The Mouth of Moander, and its people, enslaved by the dark deity, once again seeks to control Alias, and bend her to its will.
In this, the third and final book in the Finder's Stone trilogy, we are given a deeper understanding of Nameless, and of those who love him, despite their better judgment. Will the Harpers rescind the ban on Nameless from the Realms, will they return to him his name, and will Moander succeed in controlling Alias? Read the book.
If you decide to pick this one up, and wonder what the future holds for Alias the sell sword, or the Nameless bard pick up the following titles as well: "Masquerades" and "Finder's Bane" both by Kate Novak and Jeff Grubb.

Summary: My Favorite Book!
Comment: This book has got to be my favorite out of all of the D&D books that I have read! I thoroughly enjoyed the story and loved the ending. I wish there was a fourth to the Finder's Stone Trilogy! (but I guess it wouldn't be a Trilogy then huh?)
