A Great Fantasy Read

I loved this book! The characters had flaws, though the elves were a bit sterotypical. And a hero that is immune to magic is a new idea, and how the author carries it out is wonderful. I also liked how McKeone wove in Norse mythology into the story. The reason this book has four stars instead of five is because the ending is a cliff-hanger that just screams sequel, but there never was one published, which is a shame becauase there is a lot more that could be done with Dav.
