Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
Chetwin's new novel continues the story of Gom's apprenticeship where The Riddle of the Rune left off. Tricked into serving Folgan, Gom and Stormfleet are determined to do their best, but the old master's strictness and unpredictability drive Gom to despair. It is many months before Gom learns to read and do simple spells, all the while suffering terrifying dreams that the Evil One (Katak) has escaped. Finally Folgan's jealousy drives the boy away, and Gom goes to his mother's home to complete his studies. Gom's nightmares of Katak prove true, and he must become a wizard as quickly as he can in order to truly protect the Crystal Stair. Chetwin again has written an engrossing adventure of epic proportion; fans of the earlier novels will cheer Gom's transformation from woodcutter to master wizard. Ages 10-up.

Great; best book I ever read,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Starstone (School & Library Binding)
The Starstone just put a thrill in the word magic. It combines magic with an all out demand for knowledge. The main character is Gom. Gom has a famous mom who is called Harga the Brown and she is a great sorcorer. The book has just an excellent plot, good characters, and a killer descriptiveness on where it takes place. I recommend this book very highly to anyone who loves magic and adventure as much as I do!

An uplifting sequel!,
By j.t. - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Starstone, Book IV: Tales of Gom in the Legends of Ulm (Perfect Paperback)
I have read all the books in the Gom series by Grace Chetwin and could not put them down! These books require that you use your imagination...a rare quality in this day and age...and they really make you think about life and it's many stages.I am a mother of 4 and can heartily recommend this series to other parents looking for something with substance to read to their children! 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful

Nice Finish,
By John Pedigo - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Starstone: Tales of Gom in the Legends of Ulm (Hardcover)
This is the closing book in a set of four titled, Tales of Gom in the Legends of Ulm. This is an awesome book, and maybe the best of the four. It ends the series gracefully, although it does leave you wishing there was another book. I probably wouldn't read it if I hadn't read the other three though. Peace Out.
