About this listen

Paksenarrion, a simple sheepfarmer's daughter, yearns for a life of adventure and glory, such as was known to heroes in songs and story. At age seventeen she runs away from home to join a mercenary company and begins her epic life.

Book Three: Paks the warrior must learn to live with Paks the human. She undertakes a holy quest for a lost elven prince that brings the gods' wrath down on her and tests her very limits.

The breadth of imagination and world building in this last episode is phenomenal. The section describing torture was a bit grim, but otherwise I cannot praise this book enough. Plenty of well known magical entities (elves, orcs etc), but some totally new ones too. New faiths, customs alongside familiar political strife. I look forward to the trilogy that follows,

The sad conclusion of the deed ofPaksenarrion.

Not a sad ending but the sadness of not being able to keep following the characters.

The growth and story arc of several characters is woven together here and Moon doesn't shy away from portraiting true evil and dispair in a way that is unusual for most fantasy, especially at the time of the writing.

The end of one of the best Fantasy series!

The sheep farmers daughter is a truly great trilogy in some ways surpassing Tolkien. Unlike Lord of the Rings the last book in this trilogy comes to a worthy climax

The best of a great trilogy
