Synopsis

The world of Deverry: an intricate tapestry of fate, past lives, and unfathomable magic. With A Time of Exile, Katharine Kerr opens new territory in the Deverry Saga, exploring the history of the Elcyion Lacar, the elves who inhabit the country west of Deverry. It is years since the half-elven Lord Rhodry took the throne of Aberwyn. When Rhodry's lost lover, Jill—now a powerful wizard—comes to Aberyn and tells him it's time he accepted his elven heritage, Rhodry faces the most difficult choice of his life. But with Jill's help and that of a human wizard named Aderyn who has lived for years in the westlands, Rhodry begins to understand how his life is connected not just to his own people, but to the Elcyion Lacar as well. At last, destiny begins to unravel its secrets, revealing Aderyn's true purpose among the elves—and the gods' deeper design behind Rhodry's dual heritage.

Goodreads review by Sotiris on May 10, 2020

With this book, I have the impression that the series is back on track, both in terms of new ideas and their presentation by the author. After the end of a first cycle in the previous book, several years have passed without special developments, with the kingdom having gone through a period of peace......more

Goodreads review by Circe on October 18, 2022

Mi ero ripromessa di valutare l'opera solo dopo averla letta tutta... Ma adoro l'approfondimento sulle terre dell'ovest e la storia d'amore di Aderyn e Dallandra è straziante.. Tuttavia la sottotrama di rodhry con lo spiritello sembra messa lì a caso. Non ci trovo un senso logico. Sperando di capire......more
