Customer Reviews

This book is daring, captivating and imaginative.

Christie Golden takes us back into Byrnian history with this prequel to "Instrument of Fate." The definite strengths in this book include her characterization techniques, her background knowledge and her vivid imagery. Although I do not believe that the book's ending does proper justice to the beginning, it is a must read if you want to be drawn into a kind of book in which you become close friends with the characters.
