Format:Mass Market Paperback
Highly suggest reading this book, the best in the series by far (and that is saying a lot) this book is very good, and leaves the reader feeling all warm and fuzzy when done.
By M. Browning
Format:Mass Market Paperback
this is the last book in Moon's "deed of paksenarrion" trilogy, so my first advice would be to read the other 2 books before picking this one up. the book *does not* stand alone, and has frequent refrences to people and events in the preceeding books. there is an edition out there that contains all three novels, and i'd definately reccomend picking that up, as these aren't really seperate books, just a continuation of one long story.
all that being said, i highly reccomend this trilogy. Moon has written a strong, convincing heroine that rides to her own rescue. the story of the sheepfarmer's daughter that leaves her small-town life to train to be a warrior and ends up being one of the greatest knights in history is a fun, engaging read. if you come to this third book having read the first two, you know that you will be unable to put it down any time soon (the cliffhanger ending of the second book is really frustrating if this one isn't in hand). 'oath of gold' doesn't dissapoint: it's a solid conclusion to paksennarion's big tale.
Format:Mass Market Paperback
THIS IS MY ALLTIME FAVORITE BOOK. I have More books than I can remember and this is the best book I have ever read period. I love the whole trilogy but Elizabeth Moon just got better and better. This book riveted me from the beginning. The book is fast paced and full of adventure but is also very moving. You truly believe paks can do anything. This is a great feel good book. If you enjoy a riveting story where you know that good must!!! overcome evil read these. I shut this book and less than a minute later started rereading it. I couldn't get enough. ...

A weak ending to what started out really good.
This novel picks up right where "Divided Allegience" left off. If you read it, then you'll probably want to read this one to see how everything ends. Read more

Very Good Read
This book will probably not win an award for best author, or best story.
It may never be the most profound fantasy book you've every read, but it is very good. Read more

Conclusion to a stunning series!
This entire series was a breath of fresh air. It had been a while since a fantasy series had grabbed me with both hands and refused to let go. Read more

A weak finale for a trilogy that started well.
I found this book not up to the level of the earlier volumes. The heroine, Paksenarrion, is on a quest to discover the true heir to a kingdom that is in danger of collapsing into... Read more

An Outstanding read
I found myself involved in the story, cheering the good guys and fearing the bad. A truly special heroine.

This was a very good ending book.
Still not up to par with the first book, this book was much better than the second book. A few silly sub-plots, but otherwise a sensational book.

A Wonderful Conclusion to the Series!
I have read countless fantasy series where the conclusion was less than good. With this series, it just keeps getting better. Read more
