Customer Reviews

Finish the series please

This is the third of three military fantasies set in a series by Nancy Asire. This is a straight military fantasy. Lots of swords, lots of magic and lots of medieval stereotypes. The evils are absolute and the good is also absolute. No change there from the first book, Twilight Kingdoms and the second, Tears of Time.There are two races, one evil and one good. The evil race wins all the battles and drives the forces of good relentlessly backwards. The forces of good are the twin of the forces of evil except for the capacity of evil. It is the ability of the forces of evil to use magic without care for consequence that allows evil to always win and good to be unable to combat the evil effectively. In this, the third book, things are getting very desperate for the forces of good. All of the territory is under the control of evil and the end for the forces of good looks to be very near. A slender ray of hope seems to be available for the forces of good. This book turns into a guerilla warfare novel rather then grand armies marching.This book, as all the rest, has a wide-open cliffhanger at the end. This was incredibly annoying since there were six years between the first book and the second book and another three from that to the third, this one. The third novel is still a cliffhanger, so if you are a fan of clean endings do not read this book. It has been 4 years as of this review since the third book was written.A strong storyteller who is not as strong of an author. Very entertaining.

Most Intense Book I've Ever Read

Before seeing this book I have never even heard of Nancy Asire. Now I consider her to be one of the best authors I've ever read. I have not been able to put this book down. The constant battle between the Krotanya and the Leishoranya has been intense,thrilling and downright exciting.I could only wish that there was a sequel. In my mind Nancy Asire ranks right up there with Terry Brookes,Terry Goodkind and Robert Jordan. Keep up the awesome work Nancy! I'll be looking for new books from you!
