Synopsis:
Inos might be queen of Krasnegar, but she’s been magicked to the other side of the world, and the same magic has sent stable boy Rap, the goblin Little Chicken, and boy thief Thinal to the land of Faery, where Rap discovers that Inos is a pawn in a deadly game between powers greater than any army or king.

Review:
Faery Lands Forlorn is the second book in Dave Duncan’s A Man of His Word series, and it’s clear that none of these books is meant to stand alone. It picks right up where Magic Casement left off, and ends with another cliffhanger.

Epigraph
The voice I hear this passing night was heard
In ancient days, by emperor and clown:
Perhaps the self-same song that found a path
Through the sad heart of Ruth, when sick for home,
She stood in tears amid the alien corn;
The same that oft-times hath
Charmed magic casements, opening on the foam
Of perilous seas, in faery lands forlorn.

Keats, Ode to a Nightingale
Dedication

Voller Dankbarkeit und Wertschätzung Lester del Rey gewidmet, Großmeister der Fantasy
First words
Eastward from the bare crags of the Agoniste Mountains, the land fell off in scabby ridges and gullies, sere and drab.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0345366298, Mass Market Paperback)

Inos, the late king's daughter, had been kidnapped through the magic casement even as the Impish legions overrunning her tiny kingdom were storming the castle tower. Now she was a prisoner in a desert land ruled by a dockside whore with a talent for magic and a passion for politics.

She little dreamed that the loyal stableboy Rap had jumped through the casement after her. But no one really knew how the magic worked, and Rap found himself not in a desert, but in the steaming jungles of Faerie -- half a world away from Inos!

Rap was determined to rescue his beloved queen, and nothing could stop him -- not even the monsters and headhunters of Faerie, or the paranoid machinations of an evil sorcerer...

(retrieved from Amazon Tue, 19 Apr 2011 13:46:35 -0400)

Rap is determined to overcome the demons and evil magic of Faerie to rescue his beloved Queen Inos, kidnapped and held captive in a faraway desert land.
