As the last book in this trilogy, "Path of Blood" more than did its job. Reisil is believable in her struggle to save her world. I think that the only thing I feel is negative about this book, is the lack of depth in anyone but Reisil. It's not an extreme problem, but sometimes it does shine through. Other than that, I enjoyed the ending of the trilogy and read it through in one inning.
This is the plot: Chaos reigns in the realm of Kudu Riik. Plague continues to ravage its populace. Armies of the power-hungry Aare are on the march, slaughtering everything in their path to place a madman on the throne. And the rift between the kingdom and the land of Cemanahuatl yawns ever wider, threatening to consume both beneath waves of uncontrollable magic and destroy every living soul within them.
Only Reisil possesses enough power to breach the spellbound city of Mysane Kosk and seal the fracture. Accompanied by her goshawk, Saljane, and her lover, Yohuac, Reisil must journey accross a land besieged by war and fight for a domain torn asunder by sorceries beyond imagining.

Third and final volume in a trilogy of fantasy novels telling of Reisil. Via a mystical bonding with a Goshawk she has risen from a village healer to a warrior who is the only hope for her kingdom when civil war and a magical threat both come at the same time.
This follows on from previous volumes Path of Fate and Path of Honor (Path of Fate) and picks up from where the second one left off. Thus there are no concessions for new readers and even returning ones will take a few pages to pick everything back up again, so start with the earlier volumes rather than this.
It runs for four hunded and fifty two pages and forty three chapters and Reisil doesn't figure in all of them, as whilst she's out doing what she can to deal with the magical threat other characters are dealing with the war. A vivid description of places under siege follows, considering in depth what would result. Such as the need for supplies and metals. The big scope of the kingdom does make for a convincing picture of a land in turmoil, with characters not being privy to everything.
The war is brutal and there are scenes with the discovery of horrible things done by raiding bands. But these aren't graphic and there aren't that many.
As the plot strands move along you suddenly realise that there's only a hundred pages to go and may start to wonder around page three hundred and fifty if it will all be wrapped up in a satisfactory manner. Thankfully it then manages to do just that.
This doesn't break new ground for the genre and it doesn't contain anything you won't have read before if you're a fan of the genre, but it's a good read and a decent end to the story.

I finished the book, but it was a bit of an effort at times.
I do not really care for the emphasis on torture etc. Overdone, I think. The writer has talent though - I may try another book.
