Product Description

From Library Journal

As a corrupt Commonwealth rules the galaxy through the might of its armies, its most influential general--a renegade Guardian of the deposed Starfire royal line--pursues the rumor of a hidden heir to the throne and searches for a woman he loves and is destined to destroy. Weis's solo outing demonstrates her talent for creating romantic villains and strong female protagonists. This space opera/romantic adventure by the coauthor (with Tracy Hickman) of the "Death Gate Cycle" and other fantasy series belongs in most sf collections.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Lost King, Feb 1 2010

By	Colleen Tyrner "Colleen" (Yukon Canada) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Lost King (Paperback)

I loved the Star Guardian series. When i purchased it, I was looking for a fat book and a good read to take camping. I was hooked right away, i did little else until i finished it. We were in a small fishing town in Alaska, Haines Landing, and the local book store did not have the next 2 books in stock, but they called Seattle and had their supplier fly them in for me. That was several years ago, and every few years i re read them.. a true love story, Maigrey and Sagan.. The story line has considerable depth, the charecters become real and every time i read it i find something i missed the last time.

5.0 out of 5 stars The beginning of a journey., Nov 14 2002

By A Customer

I really owe a debt of thanks to Margeret Weis for writing these books. Seven years ago I was like most teenagers in the world today, my interests pretty much consisted soley of TV. I would occasionally go to the library and take out books, usually hard science science-fiction books. One day in there I saw The Lost King and decided to take it out. That's the day that I'm able to point back and say that I began my journey in literature.

The book is great! The series is great! It starts out very Star Warsyish and then takes over and draws you in. I've read the series countless times since then. I've read a thousand other books since these. It all comes back to these books. I'd be a very different person if I hadn't found them.

If you haven't read them yet... please do. It's just a superb story.

By	Lincoln Clevenson (Hyde Park, NY United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

this book isn't that great, in comparison to other margret weis,( and tracy hickman) books; this one is bad. but the next three books in the series get consecutively better. so read it just so you can read the next three.
