Shadowspawn in a dungeon crawl far from Sanctuary, Oct 8 2005
By Bookivore "The Bookivore" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Shadow Of Sorcery (Paperback)
If you followed the Thieves' World series you've read some stories of Hanse Shadowspawn, a cocky young thief with strange friends.
This novel is devoted to Hanse, following his adventures in a little town that once housed a nasty wizard named Corstic. Shadowspawn got rid of Corstic (before the story opens) and most of the town is friendly. Unfortunately some are after Corstic's treasures, and Hanse looks like a handy guy to fetch them out of Corstic's maze, especially if he can be persuaded by the kidnapping of his girl Mignureal...
I like Hanse, I like humor, and I like strange magical mazes as much as anyone. However this reads more like another episode of a weekly serial rather than a full-fledge novel with deeper implications. I rate it a 4 as worth the trouble to read but not something to take instead of a real gem.

Great and inventive way of using magic, Nov 29 2000
By E. Zand Scholten - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Shadow Of Sorcery (Paperback)
This book as a great book when it concerns a creative and new way of using magic. Instead of the not too much used or "basic" wizards, a game master can do a lot of new ideas from this book. Also the story line is not hard to get into. Lots of times you come to points that you don't want to go to sleep but want to read on to see what will happen next. I don't want to spoil a lot of the book, but to my opinion the maze chapters where the best.
3.0 out of 5 stars
....another average Thieves' World adventure...., Sep 15 2007
By Sam Crawford - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Shadow Of Sorcery (Paperback)
I love swords & sorcery. I love thieves & assassins. But, as usual, i'm let down. As a novel, it's just average. The thievery and the swords are barely in here. The dungeon crawl parts are pretty bland. I can't really recommend this unless you really liked the Thieves' World series.
Listmania!
