Sons of the Oak

Eight years after the pivotal events of "Lair of Bones," David Farland's acclaimed Runelords saga takes a dramatic turn with "Sons of the Oak." The legendary Earth King Gaborn, weakened by countless endowments and ceaseless journeys to uncharted realms, finally succumbs to his accelerated aging beyond the edge of the world. His death, however, is not an end but a cataclysmic signal for a revolution orchestrated by ancient, immensely powerful immortal beings from supernatural realms. These formidable forces have discovered the extraordinary truth about Gaborn's son, Fallion: he is the long-awaited resurrection of an immortal, possessing the unparalleled potential to reshape the very fabric of the universe. Recognizing the immense threat or opportunity Fallion represents, his enemies are determined to either seize control of him or, failing that, utterly destroy him. Though merely a child, Fallion bears the weight of his father's legacy and the fate of Gaborn's kingdom, forcing him into a desperate flight to the farthest reaches of the earth to safeguard everything his father fought to build from total annihilation.
