Lesser but Good Tone

I found this book a lot harder to pay attention to than the first or second. However, just like "Atuan", the climax was absolutely riveting. An excellent meditation on mortality and immortality and what it means to be alive while the world changes. So, even though I didn't absorb it quite as well, I enjoyed listening to it.
