The long-awaited story of the founding of Valdemar comes to life in this 3rd book of a trilogy from a New York Times bestselling author and beloved fantasist.
The refugees from the Empire have established a thriving city called Haven with the help of the Tayledras and their allies. But the Tayledras have begun a slow withdrawal to the dangerous lands known as the Pelagirs, leaving the humans of Haven to find their own way.
But even with Haven settled, the lands around Haven are not without danger. Most of the danger comes in the form of magicians: magicians taking advantage of the abundant magical energy in the lands the Tayledras have cleansed; magicians who have no compunction about allying themselves with dark powers and enslaving magical beasts and the Elementals themselves.
Kordas, his family, and his people will need all the help they can get. But when a prayer to every god he has ever heard of brings Kordas a very specific and unexpected form of help, the new kingdom of Valdemar is set on a path like nothing else the world has ever seen.
Perfect for longtime fans of Valdemar or readers diving into the world for the first time, the Founding of Valdemar trilogy will delight and enchant readers with the origin story of this beloved fantasy realm.

      Starred review from December 2, 2023

      In this concluding volume of the "Founding of Valdemar" trilogy, after Into the West, the origin story of this beloved fantasy world takes readers back to where it all began and tells the long-awaited story of how Valdemar came to be. This trilogy has told that journey from the perspective of Kordas Valdemar and his well-planned but explosively executed escape from the corrupt Eastern Empire--along with all his people--to the untamed West. In this book, the pieces that make Valdemar the place they first saw in Arrows of the Queen fall into place as the horse-like Companions gallop onto the stage amid a hail of spell fire as the answer to Kordas's heartfelt prayers in the epic conclusion. Kordas is a hero worthy of the country he founded, and watching as he puts the final touches on his legacy is a delight from beginning to end. VERDICT The legions of fans for this popular, long-running series will eat this entry up with a spoon and then hold out their bowls and beg for more stories in a world that thankfully exhibits no sign of ending.--Marlene Harris
