Susan S. (MoonLily) - , reviewed Wonderful story, but be prepared to read two books on 10/15/2008 + 71 more book reviews

Helpful Score: 1

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 are only two catches. 1.)You have to get through this book without deciding you can no longer stand the spacey heroine (I promise she does improve) and 2.)you cannot stop with this book, the story finishes in A Man Rides Through. (As a similar example, I cannot watch Empire Strikes Back without watching at least the first part of Return of the Jedi; you just CAN'T stop there!) 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.
