The Bouldershoulder Brothers. They are the funniest characters in the forgotten realms. Everything else in the series is blah.

This review is from: The Chaos Curse: The Cleric Quntet, Book Five (Mass Market Paperback)
I generally love the work of Salvatore, however this book was a disappointment. Instead of the usual "couldn't put it down", this one I "couldn't bear to pick it up". I have a rule that I always read a book cover to cover once started, incase it had a slow start with a fantastic ending or profound message. This book had

- no character developement

- non-logical villian developement

- a let down ending

and the writing style was atypical of Salvatore. His usual in depth descriptions were just glossed over intimations of what he meant.

I'll freely admit that I'm not a huge fan of the dwarven characters in his novel. They are slap stick comedy relief and make a mockery of dwarven values and characteristics. The concept of a dwarven druid is great, but he is basically portrayed as a mentally challenged dwarven druid.

Take my word on this one. This book was terrible.

3.0 out of 5 stars Okay conclusion to interesting series, Aug 12 2002
By 
Bruce H (Toronto, Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Chaos Curse: The Cleric Quntet, Book Five (Mass Market Paperback)
... there are some interesting elements here. As hinted at in some of the previous novels of the series, Cadderly has something a reformer attitude. He believes his order has strayed away from its tenets and that it is too consumed with ritual and dusty tomes rather than helping people etc... Cadderly's religious order is headed up by Dean Thobiscus who, in Cadderly's view, personifies the ritualistic and power politics that have corrupted the order. This conflict had potential to be developed more, but this did not happen.

There was one improvement over the previous book in the series. Cadderly finally faces a foe that he finds difficult to combat. Obviously, I don't want to reveal who this last villain is but it was reasonably done. There is also some genuine risk involved here as Cadderly's lover, Danica, is captured. Where is the setting for this confrontation? The Edificant Library which has been overcome by the forces of darkness. Also, he faces an important choice near the end; to follow the calling of his God completely or continue his relationship with Danica.

...
