Friedman creates a distinctive world, with enough detail to make the book come to life, but without endless excess detail. The characters are really what excel in this book, they draw you in and keep you turning the pages to see what they will be up to next. The plot is interesting and reasonable and convincing too. Really excellent. (  ) Karlstar | Dec 12, 2009 |  I read this a while back, it was great just like all the books I've read by this author. I don't think I actually have a copy. ( ) c.pergiel | Nov 29, 2009 | Pre09: I've read this one many times and will read it many more. It's just that awesome. I actually like the characters; they're believable and so is the world. And yet the whole setting is just so out there. I really like Friedman in general. Characters: Over the top. The hunter is classic and the lead fella is solid. Plot: Still very solid. Believable world with believable problems. Style: Just great. Gritty enough with still enough action and thought to keep you entertained. (  ) Isamoor | May 8, 2009 | he one is a fantasy that strikes the questions that only Fantasy can ask: What is the purpose of Power? How does Power damn the one who uses it? How can one chose NOT to do so? Gerald Tarrant is the Uber Demon who makes the reader question all the little passively accepted 'Truths' of Life. If you haven't read this book and the rest of the trilogy-- BUY IT. READ IT. That's all there is to say. C. S. Friedman writes like a Man-- this is not a soap opera filled with princesses and princes. It's hard choices with sharp edges that draw blood every time ( ) Caragen87 | Dec 28, 2008 | This will be my third attempt at this book, starting with its publication in 1991. I've read and enjoyed so many of Friedman's books, I don't know why this one won't stick. kylenapoli | Nov 21, 2008 |  no reviews | add a review
