From Amazon.com

Almost destroyed because of a man's fear and greed, Sybel, a beautiful young sorceress, embarks on a quest for revenge that proves equally destructive. Winner of the World Fantasy award, this exquisitely written story has something for almost every reader: adventure, romance and a resonant mythology that reveals powerful truths about human nature. Locus praised it for its "marvelous heroine... and chilling sorcery" and The New York Times called it "rich and regal." --Ce texte provient d'une �dition qui n'est plus publi�e ou qui est non diponible.

Locus

"A mythical kingdom fantasy with a marvelous heroine, satisfying strange beasts, and chilling sorcery." --Ce texte provient de la Paperback �dition.

Par	Krypter (Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires

This review is from: The Forgotten Beasts Of Eld (Paperback)

Beautiful, moving and written with a gentle and penetrating insight that glows with meaning rather than calling out its wisdom in a shrill voice. The Forgotten Beasts of Eld has a languid and mystical tone and some of the best characters in fantasy literature, and manages the singular accomplishment of making its heroes look like villains and its villains look almost heroic. In fact, every character in this book is perfectly human, and that's not an easy feat in a genre so stuffed with well-worn cliches. Magical, unforgettable, and truly a wonder to read. "The giant Grof was hit in one eye by a stone..."

This review is from: The Forgotten Beasts of Eld (Paperback)

She entertwines the harsh and the gentle with grace. Forgotten creatures found through a maze so common in real life.I have read all her books, and though this is not one of my most favored, she still manages to sweep me away with the emotions of the charecters, and the magic displayed once again. Well worth the read.

Par	R. E. Reynolds (Atlanta, GA) - Voir tous mes commentaires (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Forgotten Beasts of Eld (Paperback)

I first read this book over twenty years ago and have pretty much read it once a year since then. It's a gorgeous book with well rounded characters that you can actually believe. I also love that you can sympathize even with the bad guy - you don't like him, but you do sympathize with him.

I have several copies of this book and loan it out quite a bit...everyone I've ever loaned it to has loved it. It's well worth reading.

5.0�toiles sur 5 One of my favorites (of all time)
This novel is great, because it has a protagonist who isn't always honest, or pure, or even nice. It's refreshing, and great, because Sybel is someone who, even with so many... Read more
