Review
"I found Silverthorn to be as exciting and absorbing as Magician in every way. The excellent characterization wedded to a tight and well-tumed plot makes it one of the outstanding fantasy offerings of the season." --Andre Norton

Good addition to the series....,

This review is from: Silverthorn (Mass Market Paperback)
This is the 3rd book in this most excellent series. First of all I would like to say that this book splits it's time between following Prince Arutha on his quest for Silverhorn and Pug and his search for answers about the danger they face. As with the other books in the series the story grips you and the action is plenty. I would say that Arutha's quest for Silverthorn is almost like a side quest in terms of the whole plot. It does help to introduce new aspects of the plot and it also has young Jimmy the Hand in the spotlight. I like how his character is developing. I also hope that his relationship with the "Upright Man" is further explored in later books. The one main gripe I have is how easy this books' main bad-guy was dispatched. You are made to believe that he is much more powerfull then he turns out to be. Everything is always wrapped up in a neat package at the end. Would not be so bad to see a good guy get his head kicked in (Lyam????)from time to time. Having said that I ordered the 4th book in the series within hours of finishing this.

evil force growing [no spoilers],
By Oscar "DaRK KNighT" (St. Louis, MO) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Silverthorn (Mass Market Paperback)
"Silverthorn" is the gripping third volume in the Riftwar Saga. A new tale unfolds in the realm explored from the first two novels with first-rate characters Prince Arutha and Pug, aka Milamber. While Prince Arutha and his band seek out the mystic herb of Silverthorn to save a loved one, Pug and his party search for the answers to the menace behind the deed. New and exciting characters arise and extra races are developed while minor loose threads from the previous novels are tied up nicely. The author conveys the magic invoked brilliantly, placing the reader in the middle of the conflicts creating a definite classic. Some of the battles are absolutely spooky.I had an excellent time reading the book after all these years and highly recommend the series to any fan of the fantasy genre. Thank you.
