The Realms of the Gods

Gr 7—10—In the final installment (Atheneum, 2003) of Tamora Pierce's Immortals quartet, Daine and her mentor/friend Numair are pulled into the Divine Realms by Daine's mother, now the Green Lady, a minor goddess, and her divine father. There, Daine helps the gods realize that chaos threatens not just the mortal realms, but also their own. With Ozorne as a major pawn in Chaos's web, Daine and Numair feel they must take part in the ultimate war. Full of exciting battle scenes, touching friendships, romance, and imaginative, previously unexplored realms, this is a wonderful conclusion to an exciting series about a strong female character. Narrated by the author, a full cast brings the story to life. All the characters are distinctly voiced. Though not an essential purchase, libraries that already have the other titles in the series should consider purchasing this audiobook.—Jessica Miller, New Britain Public Library, New Britain, CT
