Again, this is about the royal family of Krondor, and how Arutha is training the next generation to take over for him. Its a good book with plenty of action, and it sets up the next trilogy nicely, though it does stand on its own. ( )I really liked this book, as I do most of Feist's work, although he does have a talent for writing books which are long. This book continues the story line from the Magician (Apprentice and Master), Silverthorn and A Darkness at Sethanon. I like that, and have felt for a while that Prince of the Blood was a bit of a tangent from the main thrust of the series -- although characters which are used in later stories are introduced through that book. http://www.stillhq.com/book/Raymond_E... it's a good read, but I was getting a little bored with this world by this time. The first 7 books (Magicians, Empire & all) were excellent and this wasn't bad. More of the same thing. This was a good fantasy in the Riftwar series. I liked how the characters Nicholas, Harry, Brisa and Anthony became more confident and sure of themselves. I also liked how they and their friends faced the many challenges in their path. Pirate power time, matey. Nicholas, the youngest son of Arutha has been forced to lead a sheltered life and not run around with wizards, thieves, murderers, dark elves and almost get killed a lot. Really missed out this kid. However, when he goes on a trip to Crydee, all this changes, as it is Nakor and a sea life for him, from now on. Again what you would expect from a Feist book, in general, with the focus on a minor character, even if the conflict is perhaps a little forced given some of the more major powers could have solved it much more easily. http://notfreesf.blogspot.com/2007/10... no reviews | add a review
