Customer Reviews

A great read, not your typical plot

I like this book a great deal. It doesn't follow the typical plot lines you'd expect for a story of revenge. It has an excellent twist towards the end and it just makes me want to reread it to pick up all the details I missed the first time.

A very good book of revenge and sorcery

Just when you think you've got it figured out all hell breaks loose. A book of long awaited revenge involving magic, deciet, cunning and plenty of suprises. I liked the suspense and intrigue. Nothing in the story is average, it's a new land, people magic and keeps you on the edge of your seat.

Unusually, a fantasy world with politics I can believe.

This book combines the complexities of Tarot reading with land wars, civil insurgencies and a magic talent restricted to Royal blood and the clergy. This is a very restricted summary and does no tribute to the depth of characters and intersting plotline. What can I say? I liked it.
