Book Description
With the bold adventure and brilliant magic that have made him one of fantasy's bestselling authors, R. A. Salvatore continues the epic series that began with Echoes of the Fourth Magic. Join him for a spellbinding tale of darkness, fantasia, and unbridled imagination.
Though many perished in the dark times past, a precious few survivors escaped, fleeing certain doom to find a dazzling, dangerous land of wonder. Here wizards and witches inhabited forests spun from enchantment and towers of celestial beauty. But in this place of promised safety, the Black Warlock was rising from the ashes of defeat--with an insatiable lust to dominate the world.
Square in the path of peril was Rhiannon, the gently reared daughter of the Emerald Witch. As hamlets from the Crystal Mountains to Avalon fell before the fury of the Black Warlock, the young witch sensed a sudden call; strange, terrifying powers tingled within her body. Now Rhiannon had to summon these new, untested abilities to stop the ancient warlock, an enemy who had long since mastered the forces of the universe and bent them to his diabolical will. . .

Much better than the first.,

This review is from: The Witch's Daughter (Mass Market Paperback)
All believed the Black Warlock to be defeated. But Thalasi and Reinheiser were now both sharing the same body. Once harmony was established, he and his evil Talons began their campaign anew to make a new dark world. Brielle had forever lost Del, but now had a lovely daughter, Rhiannon, who was blessed with the same powers as her mother witch. On her twentieth birthday, Rhiannon's wish was to travel with the Rangers and see the world. She found more than she bargained for! The Black Warlock had thousands upon thousands within his army. The witch and mages were kept busy against the warlock as the others were out numbered 4-to-1 or 10-to-1. But Rhiannon was learning her own powers and feared the devastation she could call up through her magic. But once she learned to control her fear and do what must be done, the Black Warlock and his dead General Mitchell would be in trouble. **** Exciting from the beginning! Much better than the first of this series. Magical spells, dragons, and battles on nearly every page. A fast paced read that you will fully enjoy.

This review is from: The Witch's Daughter (Mass Market Paperback)
R. A. Salvatore outdid himself. This novel has everything, action, humor and romance. I'm waiting for a fourth book in this series. It's worth reading.

Salvatore's worst work,
By
This review is from: The Witch's Daughter (Mass Market Paperback)
First of all, I love R.A. Salvatore's work, and thus I'm not writing a hatchet job on this book just because I don't like fantasy novels. I actually love Science Fiction and Fantasy books, and have read all of Salvatore's books. Unfortunately, I absolutely hated this book. The beginning of Witch's Daughter, which sets up a trilogy, was confusing, difficult to believe, and basically made me question that it was written by R.A. Salvatore. While this book is not absolutely horrible (after the beginning scenes it isn't that bad) this book does remain Salvatore's worst. Perhaps because he is such a great author I expect too much, but this book definitely let me down. If you've never read Salvatore's work, PLEASE begin with the Icewind Dale or Dark Elf trilogies, and if you've read all of his books, I humbly recommend that you pass on this series and wait for his next offering.
