Continuation of the Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn trilogy written by Williams in the mid-2000's.

Simon and Miri are grandparents now. Morgan (their grandson), is passively interesting as you watch him slowly grow into his responsibilities as prince. But I thought the more engaging characters were those of Jarnulf (an escaped slave to the Norns as a boy who had been secretly hunting them, but is now playing a longer game toward getting his revenge) and Nezeru (a half-blood Norn who unwiitingly is attracted to Jarnulf) on their journey with the Norns. This is a very thick fantasy saga, but Williams is expert at it, and fans of his will not be disappointed.
