About this ebook

Certain works of fantasy are immediately recognizable as monuments, towering above the rest of the category. Authors of those works, such as George R.R. Martin, Robert Jordan, and Terry Goodkind, come immediately to mind. Add to that list David Farland, whose epic Runelords series continues now in Worldbinder.

After the events of Sons of the Oak, Fallion and Jaz, the sons of the great Earth King Gaborn, are now living as fugitives in their own kingdom. Their former home has been invaded and secretly controlled by supernatural being of ultimate evil. The sons are biding their time until they can regain their rightful places in the land.

Fallion seems destined to heal the world, and feels the calling to act. When he attempts to do so though, two entire worlds collapse into one, and nothing will ever be the same again.

Ratings and reviews

felt like a stop gap book. like burning down the house to start a new story. maybe author is able to turn it around in next book, but i wish i stopped on te last one. this one not good enough to make me want to continue the series.

I read the complaints, and after consideration still purchased and read worldbinder, and enjoyed it almost as much as the first four, I don't know if it was just a taste issue, or if the detractors didn't have the patience for new world new rules, but of course the baddies are going to get stronger, else how is the hero supposed to grow and defeat overwhelming odds? Definitely continuing on to the next book in the series

Love this series and thats saying alot as iv read every epic fantasy novel i can get my hands on. One complaint though is that the last 4 pages are missing
