In order for the Storm King to cement his power over Osten Ard, he must find and defeat the rebel forces massing against him. But the rebels, led by the exiled Prince Josua, have rallied at the Stone of Farewell and are ready to fight the Storm King with every power they can muster. The key to their victory lies in finding the third sword of legend, Memory – but the sword has been lost for ages.
Lost, that is, until Simon Snowlock realises that he knows exactly where the sword is and how to recover it. The only problem: an undead army, bolstered by powerful magic, lies between him and his destination. It will take every ounce of Simon’s courage and intelligence to journey to and then recover the great sword Memory and bring peace to Osten Ard.
If Simon’s quest is to have any hope, Josua must move against the Storm King himself – a journey that will take him across endless seas, through ancient forests and into the stronghold of the Storm King himself.
The finale to Tad Williams’ breathtaking, beloved series Memory, Sorrow and Thorn.

Reviews
Williams has begun a well-written, colourfully characterized and very readable saga
The fantasy equivalent of war and peace
Without doubt on of the best fantasy novels I have read
A solid story spiced with political intrigue and strong, appealing heroes. Highly recommended
Williams is our Tolkien, and I suspect his coronation will be confirmed
[A] truly remarkable piece of storytelling . . . a glorious work or art
One of my favourite fantasy series
One of the main reasons I started writing fantasy . . . Tad Williams' work is an essential part of any science fiction and fantasy library
Ground-breaking . . . changed how people thought of the genre and paved the way for so much modern fantasy, including mine
