But that day is lost in the mists of time. And now the Skai have sent a warrior to find the Rune Blade that could slice through the darkness of blood and violence that had fallen across their land. A warrior as beautiful as she was fierce. She returned my Tyran glance with a Skai boldness all her own. "And when you find the lost prince that has the sword you seek," I asked, "Will you marry him?" "I might," she said. "I might have to kill him." I looked down at the blade that lay as bright as a promise in my hand. And the adventure that was to transform my life began... Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Better than I expected.The first thing that attracted me to this book when I was walking through the used book store was it's cover, not exactly a plain looking book, it looked different and made me pick it up. It looked good so I got it. The world always says "don't judge a book by it's cover" but in this case, it was a good thing I did. At first in this series, as with Kingmaker's sword, the storyline seems slightly predictable, but gets much more complex as the series goes on. The thing that ... Read More Rating:  - Not bad, but it didn't grab meI thought this book was okay. It had a good plot and story line. It just seemed to drag on and on! Usually I can read a book of this length in a day or two at most. This took me a week to muddle through! I just don't understand why. The writing didn't flow for me at all. The basic plot is that Kian, a slave boy who can't remember anything of his past, runs away and is found by Cullin, a Tyran noble. They realize that Kian is his long lost nephew (ha! to those of you who thought "son"). ... Read More Rating: - New favoriteI haven't read a book this good in a long time. There's really nothing new here, and I guess you could say it's even a bit predictable. What was so good about this book was how well written it was. The author has a way of sucking you into the story. I really got a feel for the characters and the setting. I even cried--and I don't recall every crying reading a fantasy novel before. I highly recommend this book! Rating: - Kingmaker's SwordI really enjoyed this book. However, it wasn't as well written as it could have been. Where some fanstasy writers overrun their stories with obscure details of unrelated history, there is a lack of background and depth in this story. I still really enjoyed the concept and characters, it just could have been so much more. I have also enjoyed Elizabeth Haydon's books as well as R.A Salvatore's Dark Elf Series. Check those out as well. Rating:  - Yuk YukThis book sucks thats all i can say. I dint fell anything good happened. Dont bye this book it is really crappy. Well thats my opinion. So remember this book sucks |
