2.0 out of 5 stars I have read better, Sep 18 2001

This review is from: ESCAPE FROM UNDERMOUNTAIN (Mass Market Paperback)

I am a big fan of the Forgotten Realms and I have read most of the published novels and found the majority to be worth reading, but this particular novel was a little tiresome.

The story revolves around an accused thief who is given a second chance at life if he will find a certain noble who got lost in Undermountain. Artek The Knife is the thief's name and being boring is his game. Artek is half-orc on his father's side and this is the only interesting thing about him. The other characters fall short in most respects, except for Muragh the talking skull and Guss the Gargoyle. Muragh provides comic relief in the story and Guss shows great bravery. The noble and Beckla the mage are not that fascinating.

I believe if the characters were more developed this would have been a better read, but they were not and this is not.

I have read many of Mark Anthony's books and I think this one of his better ones, the end was kind of "ok" I think it would have been better if it had gone in a different direction. but hey, it was good all the same.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent addition to the Forgotten Realms saga, Jun 13 2000

This review is from: ESCAPE FROM UNDERMOUNTAIN (Mass Market Paperback)

Mark Anthony has written an exciting chapter in the Forgotten Realms saga. The story of a thief who agrees to find a lost noble in the multi-level dungeon/labyrinth is one full of magic, monsters and mayhem. Once the character thinks he's found a way out of Undermountain, he's faced with a new set of obstacles.

This one will keep diehard readers of fantasy novels and new readers of fantasy novels entertained for hours. Of all the novels in the The Nobels series, this one is the best.

Also recommended is "Crypt of the Shadowking", a novel in The Harpers series, by the same author.
