Customer Reviews

'Vengeance of Dragons' Fantastic adventure at its best!

About two years ago I picked up a book entitled 'Diplomacy of Wolves',the first book in 'The Secret Texts' trilogy. I was immediately drawn into the world Holly Lisle has created. In 'Vengeance of Dragons' Lisle continues the story of Kait Galiweigh and her quest for 'The Mirror of Souls'. The story picks right up where 'Diplomacy of Wolves' left off and the pace never slows. The best part of Ms. Lisle's work in 'The Secret Texts' trilogy is that she has balanced an interesting mix of adventure, romance, political intrigue, and some incredible magic. Each character comes vividly to life and you can't help but feel a part of their world. If you are a fan of fantasy you would be cheating yourself by not reading this trilogy so check it out and be drawn in. The third book 'Courage of Falcons' is scheduled for and October 2000 release. I eagerly look forward to it.

Something Wonderful!

Holly Lisle has long been a favorite author of mine, and this book proved again why I dash to the bookstores to get a new book of hers. Wonderful characters, solid plot. Nothing happens by chance -- Lisle weaves the threads of the story with such a masterful touch, the resulting tapestry is colorful, passionate, and complete... almost. This is the 2nd of the trilogy. The final book will be out in October, 2000. I simply can't wait.

One of the best I have ever read.

A real page turner. I read mostly Lackey and Salvatore but I rate Lisle among the best.

Wonderful books Lisle tops the charts with her books !

Ms. Lisle is a totally terriffic author. I normally cannot stand a sequal but Lisle makes the books so entertaining I can't put it down. I especially love the adventure / romance combination thrown in. It is a series well worth reading and I am looking into buying the seperate books myself as they come out. Thank you so much Ms. Lisle for writing a series that is truly worthwhile.

A Grand Adventure

Possibly the only sequel I've ever read that was actually better than the original. Ms. Lisle continues to impress with her fantastically drawn characters and intricate storytelling, and I'm oh-so-eagerly awaiting the next volume in the saga. Wonderful stuff.
