Skylan Ivorson is the gods-chosen Chief of all Vindras clans. But the
gods from whom the Vindrasi draw their earthdwelling power are besieged
by a new generation of gods who are challenging them for the powers of
creation. The only way to stop these brash interlopers lies within the
Five Bones of the Vektia Dragon—the primal dragon forged during the
creation of the world—which have been lost for generations.
With the Gods of the New Dawn amassing a vast army, Skylan finds allies in former enemies. Calling upon the ogres to fight their common foes, the Vindrasi soon find themselves in the middle of an even larger war. Skylan and his Vindrasi clan must sail the Sea of Tears into the heart of the Forbidden Empire of the Cyclops, to implement a cunning yet delicate plan that risks his life and leadership at every corner. But a new enemy lies deep in the sea, one who draws upon powers never harnessed by land dwellers.
Master world-builders Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman, who have entertained generations of fans with the Dragonlance series and the Death Gate Cycle, prove they’re at the top of their game.

My Opinion:
A great adventure!
It doesn't even matter that this is the third in a series and I hadn't read the first two. I admit, at the beginning, some of the references to past adventures were lost on me, but I quickly caught on to it all.
Farinn is my favorite character too! All I can tell you is he's 16 and fae. He is a delight, but not heard from much. I do hope later on there will be a book just about him.
At the end was a sad part, for like a millisecond, then you get another twist. I love when a book leaves it on a twist, that's how you know there's more to come. I can't wait for that, heck, I may even backtrack for the first two and see what I missed.
4/5
