Product Description

Review

Praise for the New York Times bestselling Runelords series:

“Stark, dark, and elegiac. . . .  Farland ponders the fuzzy line between honor and obsession in a world where compassion comes with a high price. . . .  Complex machinations soaked in mud and blood.”
--Publishers Weekly on Chaosbound

“David Farland has written a series that rivals the best of Terry Brooks, Terry Goodkind and Orson Scott Card.”
--SF Revu on Worldbinder

The suspense is real, the action is nonstop, and the characterizations continue to convince. . . . [this is] a series that has put Farland on high-fantasy readers’ maps.”
Booklist on The Lair of Bones

“Fans of Robert Jordan and Terry Goodkind will enjoy Farland’s Runelords.”
Romantic Times Book Reviews on The Lair of Bones

“The author’s imaginative approach to magic, coupled with a richly detailed fantasy world and a cast of memorable heroes and villains, adds depth and variety to this epic tale of war and valor.”
--Library Journal on Wizardborn

“Sure, Brotherhood has incredible edge-of-your-seat, nail-biting battle scenes--the finale being an exceptional example--but Gaborn’s struggle to make a decision, and then facing the consequences, is equally thrilling.”
--Starlog on The Brotherhood of the Wolf

“When I reached the end of this first volume, The Runelords, and saw grace arise from a devastating battlefield where too many great hearts lay dead, Farland had earned the tears that came to my eyes. It was not sentiment but epiphany.”
--Orson Scott Card, author of Ender in Exile

"Farland has created a vivid, detailed, different world that becomes perfectly believable."
--David Drake, author of The Legions of Fire

"David Farland's Runelords books are among the best fantasies on the market today.  Great characters, a fascinating concept, and some really nasty monsters make each novel a pleasure to read."
--Kevin J. Anderson, New York Times bestselling author of The Winds of Dune

Product Description

Borenson is set on a quest to save the devastated world from certain destruction.  But the land has been altered forever: in the change, Borenson has merged with a mighty and monstrous creature from the other world, Aaath Ulber, and he begins to be a different person, a berserker warrior, as well as having a huge new body.  Thousands have died, lands have sunk below the sea and elsewhere risen from it. And the supernatural rulers of the worlds are part of a universal evil, yet play a byzantine game of dark power politics among themselves. And Aaath Ulber is now the most significant pawn in that game.

This review is from: Chaosbound: The Eighth Book of the Runelords (Hardcover)
I love David Farlands story, and have generally liked his writing style over the last seven books in this series. But this is the most sophomoric, poorly written science fiction fantasy novel I have ever read. It is written as if for a novice reader, where Farland will say something and then follow up with an explanatory sentence. Example, he once says that the provisions on the ship are getting low. Then next sentence says the food and water were running out. As if he thought we didnt know what provisions getting low meant. There are hundreds of examples of this kind of writing throughout. Plus, the story line was weak, and hardly advanced the cause of the overall story much at all. I cant believe the editors let this out for printing, other than that they just wanted our money. Well next time i wont be a fool and buy the hardbound edition, if i buy the next one at all. Highly disappointing. Feel cheated.

1.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Horrible, April 18 2010
By Matthew - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Chaosbound: The Eighth Book of the Runelords (Hardcover)
This series makes you feel like you are reading Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth series all over again. A really awesome first couple of books, and then a decent into mindless dribble. Extremely dissapointing. I hate to leave a series unfinished, so I sincerely hope it's finished in 1 last book (please, oh please, don't drag this out any longer).

On a side note (Page Count):
Sum of All Men - 624
Brotherhood of the Wolf - 688
Wizardborn - 496
The Lair of Bones - 480
Sons of the Oak - 432
Worldbinder - 400
The Wyrmling Horde - 400
Chaosbound - 352

Come on David Farland, this is a joke, the last 2 books could have been put into one, it appears you are trying to cash in on the series. Good book, though far to short and does not justify the hard back cost for such little content. Please make the next one a proper novel and finish the series.
Very dissapointed.
