For me this is better than the Lord Of the Rings trilogy. Amust read for all those who are fans of the fantasy genre. (  ) trinibaby9 | Nov 24, 2009 |  Outstanding in concept and execution. ( ) librisissimo | Apr 17, 2009 | martlet | Nov 1, 2008 | Excellent fantasy that really owes nothing to Tolkien, although McKillip has been compared with him. Her luminous prose is enthralling, though at times maddening in its ambiguity and vagueness. Still, McKillip writes with her own gentle voice; even when her characters are wreaking unspeakable violence on each other, something of the "hippie girl" comes through. Like the finest fantasy (Tolkien, early Frank Herbert, Gene Wolfe), McKillip creates her own complete world. Riddle-Master repays careful rereading. A worthy addition to the canon. (  ) Pianojazz | Aug 15, 2008 | This is one of the most beautiful books I have ever read! The language reads like poetry in that it is gorgeous and flows. It devles into the different types of love there are and is just amazing! ( ) wind_song | Dec 5, 2007 |  no reviews | add a review
Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0441005969, Paperback)For over twenty years, Patricia A. McKillip has captured the hearts and imaginations of thousands of readers. And although her renowned Riddle-Master trilogy--The Riddle-Master of Hed, Heir of Sea and Fire, and Harpist in the Wind--has been long out of print, it is considered her most enduring and beloved work. Now it is collected in one volume for the first time--the epic journeys of a young prince in a strange land, where wizards have long since vanished...but where magic is waiting to be reborn.(retrieved from Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:58:03 -0400) The first test round has been closed.
