Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Starred Review. Brooks's 1994 novel creates a vast imaginary world telling the tale of the mysterious Tangle Box that threatens the Kingdom of Landover. With his trademark straightforward approach, Dick Hill brings this story to life in a realistic and believable reading that is wonderfully underplayed yet subtly wondrous and otherworldly. Hill's characters are real and honest, his omniscient narrator a guiding light for this complicated fable. Once again displaying his massive dialectical pallet, Hill offers memorable characters sure to entertain and enthrall listeners for hours. A Del Rey paperback (Reviews, Apr. 4, 1994). (May)

From Library Journal

Ex-lawyer Ben Holiday's peaceful reign as king of the magic realm of Landover takes a decided turn for the worse with the arrival of con man and conjurer Horris Kew, an unwitting agent for an evil power that seeks to control the good folk of the kingdom. Where Brooks's popular Shannara novels (The Talismans of Shannara, LJ 2/ 15/93) pay tribute to traditional epic fantasy, his Landover series-of which this is the latest-displays the author's genuine flair for humorous fantasy. A good selection for most fantasy collections, and one that will probably be in demand.

5.0 out of 5 stars plus a few for extra good writing, Jul 13 2000

By	Jared Garrett (Utah) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Tangle Box (Mass Market Paperback)

Finally Brooks took some risks and put his characters really on the line. I found this the best plotted one of the series! I loved it. The characters' explorations in their prison are wonderfully done, especially those they make into themselves. I think Brooks put more meat in this one, and that is why I like it so much. You gotta read this one. It is definately the most satisfying of the bunch, with the G'Home Gnomes being the coolest part of the book practically. Read it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Job Terry, Another Piece of Excellent Work!!, Aug 6 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Tangle Box (Mass Market Paperback)

I loved this book. Next to THE WITCHES' BREW, this was the best landover novel, Terry really did out do himself this time. I enjoyed this book the whole way through, I never wanted to put it down, and when I did, I picked it up again almost immediatly. I loved all the hardships and obsticles the characters had to face, endure, and over come throughout the course of the book. GREAT JOB!!!!!! This is a must read for anybody and everybody who has ever had a love for the spellbinding magic of a great fantasy novel.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great light reading., Jul 28 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Tangle Box (Mass Market Paperback)

It's a good read, if some entertainment and light fantasy is what you want. Fortunately its what I want, and I can say that next to Piers Anthonly's XANTH series, this is the best light fantasy series going.
