The Place of Knowing (The Volatar Saga Book 5) Kindle Edition

4.3 out of 5 stars 226 ratings

The Volatar started one war. Now he must end another.

Hevith has found a city of Jahor, though none want to fight. While they might be content to hide in the north, he wants to push the attack and reclaim what was lost. Others are willing to fight alongside him, but the price of war might be more than he can stomach.

Heading into the southern forest revealed a truth about the Volatar. He may have stopped one war, but at what cost? Now another war threatens to bring about even greater destruction than what they've ever faced, but first he needs to understand the truths hidden within lands ravaged by war for decades. How can he find those truths when so much has been lost?

The riveting conclusion of The Volatar Saga.

    This series had more twists and turns then a rollercoaster. The jumping back and forth I time was at.first confusing, but by second book, my slow moving thought process caught on to some degree. It was not till the end that I truly understood the reason for this. Like all of your series, the characters are excellent. Some of my favorite never make the end, but this true in reality as well. Thank you for another series to help me deal with my reality. I have not read a series yet I have not enjoyed and I have read several. I will continue he following your imagination and gifted characters in the future as well.

    This is a good series- a good story. Learning with Hevith and following what happened while he was the Volatar was interesting and exciting. I still feel that the story could have been arranged differently. I would have liked to follow and get to know Hevith as he learned and grew to be more - Volatar. But it is still a good story- just be prepared to go back and forth between Hevith and Volatar.

    From Caravaner Lad to a Titan of Peace. The journey outweighs the destination as we witness the layers of lessons learned and truths revealed. A reminder that being true to oneself and going with your gut, doesn’t always work out so bad. A great read anytime, anywhere.

    I like the author but this series was especially hard to read. It was like trying to read two different series at the same time with common characters. You get rolling on a story line and, all of a sudden, you're dropped into the middle of another story line. You have to regroup and get started again only to be returned to the original story line. The back and forth made for a lot of starts and stops and disruption of the flow.

    I think the saga would have been better portrayed as two, The Hevith Saga followed by The Volatar Saga.

    This was the last book in the series. It took so many twists and turns. It does leave you to wonder what happens in the end.
    The switching back and forth from hevith to volatar was at times I was not sure who was who even though they were the same person. Hevith’s journey shows how he matures and grows.
    He found his purpose.

    I enjoyed this romp in fantasy in spite of the editing problems, which were actually easy to read over. It is a tale of introspection, a strive for peace internally and externally and an attempt at understanding how wars are created by the need for control over others and the ramifications of such a need, which over time only become entrenched in the fabric of society, the origins forgotten, misremembered and distorted. Obviously a theme relatable to our own world history, yet told in a manner that is without polarizing blame and righteous indignation in a fantasy world of magical powers and mythical type beings.
    The only complaint I have is in the way the story bounces back and forth between Hevith and Volatar, the same person at different times in his life stages and how he navigates through them. I understand what the author is doing and why he uses this format, which I think is good, but I felt that it would have been less confusing and more insightful into the character's progression had he spent more sequential time with each rather than one or two chapters at a time. This became more of an issue for me in the last two books but by then I was committed to the story and needed to see how it all ended. I think that is what makes an author stand out, the ability to get the reader committed. He certainly accomlished that for me regardless of my complaint, and he delivered a good story. I am a Kindle Unlimited junkie, so I love it when I find an author, previously unknown to me, whom I can follow. Mr. Holmberg is on my radar now!
    I look forward to reading more fantasy from him so will start with the dragons!!

    The end of another D.K.Holmberg series finished. And it was another good one. This is the fourth series of his that I have read. I really enjoyed his stile of writing. And would recommend his books to a friend.
  • Reviewed in the United States on September 13, 2020
    I only read the entire series because of my initial investment of time.
    Until the author finds the time or inclination to edit his novels for all the missing words and all the extra nonsensical words, I don't have time to waste wading through them.
    From his beginning endeavors at novel writing he has steadily incorporated more and more annoying habits such as having no dialogue for a dozen pages and even leave conversations hanging in the ether for a dozen pages. To say this habit is annoying is an understatement.
    With each new series it becomes worse and he's resorting to endless repetition in his latest endeavors. All his recent novels could be shortened by at least a third if he reined in the repetition. I really have no choice but to look at other authors who haven't cultivated these bad habits.

    Must be the better part of 40 or maybe more books in. By far this is the best written series. Still too many grammatical errors for my liking but considerably less than many others from DK Holmberg

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 5, 2021
    This saga has produced exciting twists and turns throughout, and this last in the series proved to be no exception. Still found the dichotomy of the tale slightly uncomfortable, but the storyline made pursuing the split narrative well worthwhile. Thoroughly reccomend!
