Kirith Kirin35 reviews Jim Grimsley Meisha Merlin Publishing, Inc., 2000 slow + a very good read If only action packed sword and sorcery fantasy novels are to your taste you should carefully avoid the trouble to look for this out of print book which I happened to purchase for a rather outrageous price.

Day Iris Print, 2006 For me, it was the language + A Blast From The Past. + Excellent storytelling For me, it was the language. Crisp and clear, like a bright winter's day. Honest, matter-of-factly, like the farmer's boy who tells the story. This is not one of those dialogue-driven books. The characters don't talk very much, neither David, nor David's father or any of his family. Feelings are ...             Traitor's Moon (Nightrunner, Vol. 3)72 reviews Lynn Flewelling Spectra, 1999 Lynn Flewelling is a fabulous writer! + Well written ~ and with a gripping conclusion + Nightrunner vol. 3 + Highly recommended! + The fight continues             Dream Boy: A Novel157 reviews Jim Grimsley Touchstone, 1997 Beautiful + It made me want to scream... + Dream Boy, Dream Novel + Achingly Beautiful + Amazing!             Magic's Pawn (The Last Herald-Mage Series, Book 1)214 reviews Mercedes Lackey DAW, 1989 Great Series... + Wish I'd read it when I was a kid... + A Pawn or An Active Player?

Yes, I think. Another great book from this author, it is really difficult to put it down and you find yourself not wanting it to end, great escapism and very well written.
