Kerith has many humanoid and non-humanoid race living uneasily together including the Vaelinar from another world. There are politics and war brewing. Against this epic fantasy is interwoven the everyday life of the Farbranch family which gives it structure. Nicely done 👍🏼

humouress Doesn‘t end on a cliff hanger and feels like a complete story but leaves enough open to continue the overarching story in the next book. I think this was a LibraryThing recommendation for me (edited) 9mo

The timeline is a bit confusing; years/ decades can pass between chapters, maybe because some of the characters are long lived Vaelinars (elves). I‘m ~ 1/4 way through and following a few characters. I‘m not sure yet how they relate to each other, though they do interact unawares.
There are many different races/ species on this planet (Kerith) who live uneasily together.
I do like the warmth of the Farbranch family, who are Dwellers (dwarves).

humouress About 2/5 the way through and still not entirely sure of the direction but the world building is holding my attention 9mo
humouress Maps would have been useful. There are several incidental animal deaths (edited) 9mo
