Synopsis

Crown of Renewal is the fifth and final book of the Paladin's Legacy series, continuing directly from Limits of Power. With magery resurfacing unpredictably across the Eight Kingdoms and religious fanatics still hunting those who display it, and with a hidden traitor still working to undermine any fragile peace, King Kieri of Lyonya and his allies, including Mikeli of Tsaia, must find a way to unite the kingdoms against the mounting danger before it destroys them. The book draws together the political, magical and personal threads set in motion across the preceding volumes, following the series' recurring cast as they confront the consequences of the Lady's death and the wider awakening of magic that has unsettled every realm in the story.

Where it sits

Notes

  • From the series record (Paladin's Legacy): 5-novel direct-sequel sequence (2010-2014), continuing immediately after The Deed of Paksenarrion. Not to be confused with The Legacy of Gird, a differently-named earlier prequel duology.

Neighbouring works

Publication order and internal chronology are tracked as two separate orderings and are never conflated: a book's place in one says nothing about its place in the other.

  • Publication order, within the series Paladin's Legacy: position 5 of 5: previous Limits of Power (2013)
  • Internal chronology, within The Paksenarrion Universe: position 10 of 10: previous Limits of Power (2013)
