A Serious Letdown

I'm sorry to say I have to agree with those reviewers who didn't like this book. I'm a fan of Valdemar and especially the "Arrows" Trilogy and "By the Sword," but this book was a disappointment. I was bored by the effort of trying to keep track of (and care about) a dozen or more "main" characters, and I found much of the plot to be predictable and lacking suspense. Sadly, it's a letdown, given how much I enjoyed some of the other books in this series.

The Mage Storms

Three books that are total adventure, not just for young adults.
The stories are rich, full of color with wonderfuly well formed characters
so well developed that you can live the story with them as if you were in their shoes.
I can only think of The Mages Storms as one book however all three are great in themselves, very enjoyable adventure.
Excellent author.

My fave

I actually liked this book the best of the three. The only part I didn't like were the passages about what was going on in the empire. Who cares? My favorite parts of the book were actually the ones about Tremane and his ascension. I liked his character a lot and I loved how the change was made in him from the first two books.
