The Last Light of the Sun
''The Last Light of the Sun'' is a 2004 fantasy novel by Guy Gavriel Kay. Like many of his books, it is set in a world that draws heavily upon real times, events, places and people. In this particular book, the period is the Viking invasions of Saxon England. The story concerns a young Erling's attempt to prove himself as a warrior, his father's attempts to make amends for his mistakes, a young prince searching for revenge and a King's attempt to transform his realm into a more civilized one that will resist attacks from the Erlings forever.
The books main themes are revenge, violence, the passing of an era, clash of cultures, and love, especially between father and son.
==Connections to other work by Kay==
The novel set in the same world as Kay's ''The Lions of Al-Rassan'' and to ''The Sarantine Mosaic''. It takes place after the latter but before the former. A passing reference to the mosaic Crispin created at the end of ''The Sarantine Mosaic'' and to the works of Rustem implies that decades or perhaps centuries have passed. A conversation about Leontes' time on the throne puts ''The Last Light of the Sun'' roughly three hundred years afterwards. Asharite merchants from Al-Rassan put this book chronologically either before or during the events of ''The Lions of Al-Rassan''.
