Enjoyed this serires. 'Magic' in a real world setting of with castles and kingdoms may not sound like it would be good but Donaldson makes it real. The people and places capture your interest. His writing, st times, is beautiful and heart stirring.

Book 2 has a lot more action than book 1. The story lines are already developed and the characters seem a lot more alive.

Not a bad book, but it is no Thomas Covenant!

There are so many characters besides Terisa and Geraden that are a valuable part of the story. This book is part soap opera, part fantasy, part study of human nature. There are some dark moments and some funny ones. You really feel for the characters and their struggles. There are few gruesome moments too, but probably not past PG13 by movie standards.

This story is really great. There is one catch. You want to read Mirror of Her Dreams first, the story finishes in A Man Rides Through. Although they are written as two books, I don't think you would get as much enjoyment out of this one without reading the other first. In the first book you are still trying to figure out who is on which side (and just how many sides there are to this puzzle!) Book two holds some surprises that do not mean as much if you had not fully met the characters in book 1. Keeping all of that in mind. I would still recommend these books and have many times. I am on my third set because I loan them out and do not get them back!

Definitely, with these two, read them in order and close together.

This is an excellent follow up to a "Mirror of Her Dreams". Very intricately plotted, but easily followed. Not your typical fantasy novel. Excellent wrapup and ending. Very worth reading for fantasy fans.

Terisa Morgan desperately needed to escape. Gilbur was trying to kill her, Castellan Lebbick wanted to torture her, and she needed to find Geraden. Orison was being attacked by the Alend army poised at the gates... Eremis, the traitor was working with Gilbur in league with the hated Cadwals and the Arch-Imager Vagel...King Joyse's actions could not be explained.
Everything that Geraden loved was about to be destroyed--unless the two of them could find a way to prevent it by using the talent for mirrors and Imagery that Terisa now knew they both possessed...a talent that made them extremely powerful and extremely dangerous to Eremis. And Terisa knew that Eremis would use all the evil means at his disposal to insure the success of his master plan, which meant that the kingdom would be lost and she and Geraden would surely die.
