Product Description
Product Description
Shrouded in ice, the stronghold of the ogres has stood for eons as an impregnable bastion of the Icereach. But now Strongwind Whalebone, king of the Highlanders, has been imprisoned in the ogre fortress. Outside its walls, a band of his compatriots plots his rescue. Within the fortress, ogre king Grimwar Bane faces royal treachery and desperate revolt.
It is time for the ogre king to decide if the greater threat lies outside Winterheim—or within.
In the third book of his epic trilogy, Douglas Niles weaves a tapestry of magic and adventure into a climax that will affect the destiny of all those who dwell in the cold land of the Icereach.

This review is from: Winterheim: Icewall Trilogy, Book Three (Mass Market Paperback)
This is an excellent finish to a really entertaining trilogy. Fans of fantasty fiction who have no prior exposure to the Dragonlance world can still enjoy these books (the first two are The Messenger and The Golden Orb).This book basically ends to tale of the characters introduced at the beginning of the trilogy. There are plenty of epic battles, narrow escapes, and character development. A couple of nagging questions (e.g. is Coraltop the kender real?) that are finally answered. The only qualm I have with this book is that the ending seems a bit rushed and a little too convenient. But it is not at all unbelievable, and the epilogue is very nice. Overall, a very good novel, but when taken in conjunction with the other parts of the trilogy, it is really excellent.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Another good read,

This review is from: Winterheim: Icewall Trilogy, Book Three (Mass Market Paperback)
Douglas Niles completes the telling of the Icewall Trilogy story. There is a brave (or crazy) rescue attempt made by the Arktos and Highlanders that brings them into the heart of the Ogre Kingdom. Another good book filled with difficult choices and fast paced action - and a slave revolt! See also: The Messenger and The Golden Orb.
