Twenty years have passed since Beldinas the Kingpriest assumed the throne. His is a realm of unsurpassed grandeur and wealth, a testament to the mightiest age of the empire of Istar.
But evil exists in this great realm, threatening the peace and sanctity of the province. Beldinas must turn to his most loyal lieutenant, Cathan, for help. Following Cathan's lead, the Knights of the Divine Hammer strive to extinguish a foul sorcery that will stop at nothing to serve its own dark ends.

So that's how it happened!!!,
By Andy. Gillum (indian mound, tn) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Divine Hammer: Kingpriest Trilogy, Volume Two (Mass Market Paperback)
The first novel was just good enough to make me continue reading the trilogy & this one blew me away.The Lightbringer starts to lose his grip on his sanity, Cathan starts to wonder if he's fighting on the right side & you find out who REALLY brought down the wizards: Fistandantilus of all people! There's enough surprises in here to get you interessted.

Awsome! A must for all DL fans,
By A Customer
This review is from: Divine Hammer: Kingpriest Trilogy, Volume Two (Mass Market Paperback)
I have read about 95% of all the DL books as well, and nothing upsets me more than finding information in a book that is contadicting to the others that I read. Well this one blew me away, being that it ties in information from a number of other DL novels I was really inpressed with how it was all layed out and kind of blended in. I cant wait to read the last one!

What exactly should you do in the name of a god?,
By Richard Raley "The King Henry Tapes" (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Divine Hammer: Kingpriest Trilogy, Volume Two (Mass Market Paperback)
The Kingpriest Trilogy is amazing, that's the simplest way for me to put it. If you love Dragonlance and haven't read it then do so at once. It is well written and provides backstory for the famous Legends Trilogy. Explaining why exactly the people of Istar were mad with religious fever, why did they despise magic, and why did the gods smite them. "Divine Hammer" focuses specifically on the events surrounding the war between the Kingpriest and the Hall of Mages.There is plenty in this novel to please any kind of dragonlance fan: sword fights, pitched battles of magic, a working church language, questions of morality, a bit of love, and a good chuck of evil. Perhaps one of the key factors is that it has such a strong villain in the Archmage Fistandantilus. Really this trilogy has everything, it's the best dragonlance I've read in a long time and truly earns the five stars I'm giving it. I haven't seen DL done this well since "Soulforge" came out, it even eclipses the War of Souls Trilogy. The only problem I have is that it is kept to the common 300 pages of all second tier dragonlance novels. I'm aware some DL authors have trouble with it, but Chris Pierson (no relation) does not. It's too late to do so in this trilogy but if he is given the rights to another let him write it as he can, EPIC. I don't just give out five stars for no reason, this one truly earned it. Final Thought: Sifat Pilofiro (so be it, Lightbringer).
