Daughter of the Blood (Black Jewels, Book 1) 243 reviews Anne Bishop
Roc, 1998
May the Darkness Be Merciful
+ Great book! + Mesmerizing high fantasy
This was my fourth reading of Anne Bishop's first novel of the Jewels Trilogy, and it gets better with every go around. There aren't enough words to express the masterpiece Ms. Bishop has created. It centers around a powerful world filled with twisted darkness and a shining, and sometimes ...

Roc, 1999
Extraordinary fantasy
+ Witch Comes of Age + Absolute Must Read
The Black Jewels Trilogy continues in this amazing book. It is just as memorable as the first, and isn't just a segue between the first and third books like so many trilogies today. The characters continue to develop in new ways and the setting is as vivid as ever. Bishop is a very talented writer, ...

This book is an excellent ending to a great series. If you liked the five previous books of this series you are going to enjoy this one also. I would have to say that it was the best book of the series. I could have done without the cliff hanger about Acorna's daughter only because it makes me want ...

Dragons of Autumn Twilight (Dragonlance: Dragonlance Chronicles) 356 reviews Margaret Weis, Tracy Hickman
Wizards of the Coast, 2000
The best fantasy has to offer.
+ One of my all time favorite trilogies + A Great Read, Classic Adventure Fantasy
You can't judge a book by its cover, eh? Back in 1990 my cousin and I got into all things fantasy, mostly because we loved the 80's fantasy movies like Willow, Legend, Dragonslayer, etc., but because we wanted to further our love of fantasy into reading novels, which we had heard were always better ...
