Best Book of the Trilogy

I did enjoy the first two books of the triogy but Goddess was by far the best book. Not only did this tie up the story but it was filled with very innovative plot twists. Fiona Mcintosh is a writer that has never disappointed me. If you have not had the pleasure of reading any of her books you are cheating yourself. Her characters really stay with you and I was very sad to see this series end. I think fans of Carol Berg would really enjoy these books.They are a little on the dark side with a plot that grabs you and does not let go.

Great Book, Great Series

Fiona McIntosh is a major new fantasy talent. With 2 wonderful series under her belt, she can only get better!

interesting ending to a strong trilogy

Religious fanatic Aranfanz holds captive in his desert fortress pregnant Zaradine Ana because he believes Percheron's leader Zar Boaz is the father of the unborn. Aranfanz plans to use the heir as a pawn. Ana wonders if her beloved Prince Lucien of Galinsea, known in Percheron as Spur Lazar, is the father. However, her biggest concern is for her child wheile she remains incarcerated by the desert warriors. Meanwhile her spouse Zar and her beloved Luicen obtain the help of shapeshifting demigod Iridor in their quest to find and free Ana at a time when their two nations turn to war and Maliz the demon in human guise as the grand vizier tries to prevent their success. The final Percheron tale (see ODALISQUE and EMISSARY) is an interesting ending to a strong trilogy though this entry is not quite as engaging as the previous pair is as it takes too long to move into confrontational mode. The key cast remains solid characters as Zar obsesses over Ana to the point that he leaves his country at risk from the sea to mount a desert rescue of her. Although newcomers must read the previous books to comprehend what is going on in GODDESS, Fiona McIntosh closes her saga on a fine note. Harriet Klausner
