Customer Reviews

A great stand-alone novel

This was the most enjoyable MTG book I've read thus far. This stand-alone novel is a quick and exciting read that would be great for anyone looking for something easy and relaxing. The development of the story is fast-paced with a surprising amount of complexity in the characters, cultures, and lands. Sumner is outstanding at creating a vivid and believable picture of a strange land with strange inhabitants with strange customs in few words. While this book will only take a couple of days to read, you'll be surprised at how quickly and deeply you are drawn into the story of Telli and Recin, and their struggle to introduce peace to a troubled land. Also, you do not need any prior knowledge of MTG or any of the previous books to fully appreciate this one. Sumner made no attempt to tie in this book with MTG the game, which really freed him up to create his own work. For all intents and purposes, this book could have been published in any of the open-optioned fantasy collections. Definitely better than most MTG books, I'd reccomend it to anyone.

The story of three people

Conflict, murder, and spying. This book is a book which I read between series. I can't wait until I read another Magic the Gathering.

Good-Better-Best

Halleluja, what a book. That is the best in the line and in the world

I'm speechless...

This book was great. I couldn't put it down, after I read into it about 50 pages, I started reading it in class and not paying attention to my teachers. That started to be a problem... lol ...

The different races have to settle their differences!

The Prodigal Sorcerer was a great story of a human named Tagard Tarngold and a wizard named Aligarius have to make the different races of the land stop fighting each other.
