This is book two of the Firemane series. Book one was King
of Ashes which I thoroughly enjoyed. This book picks up with Declan and Hatu
settling down and finding love. The
expected villains are supplanted by unexpected villains. Chaos ensues.
The story includes battles, kidnappings and intrigue as well
as perfidy and treachery. Some bit
players from the first book are provided with larger roles to play. Feist, once again, disposes of some
characters with the stroke of a pen rather than the swift, sure stroke of a
sword. I hate when he kills off someone
who I have enjoyed.
The plot is tight and intricate and assorted variables are
introduced to keep you guessing. Feist
is a master story teller.
I really enjoyed this book and hope Feist is working
diligently on the next volume, the
sooner it arrives the better.
