Oath of Gold (The Deed of Paksenarrion, #3)

(given this is book 3 in a series, it might contain some mild spoilers, consider yourself warned)
I was psyched to start this book: At the end of book 2, we went somewhere peculiar and unexpected and Paksenarrion could be found at the metaphorical rock bottom of the ocean. The first half was (by far) the best part of the book: Paks struggling to get through the days, her finding her way back to Brewersbridge and getting helped by my favourite Kuakgan. That whole part was actually really cool.
The second half on the other hand was a bit disappointing: The entire sword-plot was so predictable that a toddler could see it coming from a mile away. The ending with Paks sacrificing herself was just over the top and too ridiculous to be true. I really wish Moon would have stayed away from that, and have it ending on a fight.
The first half (and the rest of the series) are making up for it though. As a whole, it's still a really enjoyable fantasy series.
