Product Description

Book Description

his epic fantasy of enormous scope, set on a world peopled by fascinating, compelling characters who readers will take to their hearts, is a sharply observed saga of a cold, splintered world on the brink. A thousand years ago, war shook the land and decimated the Sull, a legendary ancient people. In the two previous Sword of Shadows novels, bestselling author J. V. Jones gave readers the powerful stories of Raif Sevrance and Ash March, a man and woman whose destinies place them in terrible jeopardy as they try to find themselves and save their world. Across the land, clans vie for dominance. Dangerous, arrogant clan chiefs urge their followers to frenzied battles, killing each other and plotting to defeat their rivals in spite of those among them who seek unity. But for all the vicious contention among the clans, a darker threat comes from a city with a black heart of evil, whose rulers have long sought to control the clanholds. As Ash pursues her destiny with the Sull and Raif seeks a place where he belongs, the story of their world is spun in a tale at once violent, poignant, and filled with suspense and excitement for any who love epic fantasy on a grand scale.

5.0 out of 5 stars The high quality of this fantasy/adventure continues in book 3, May 15 2009

By	R. Nicholson - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER)

This review is from: A Sword from Red Ice: Book Three of Sword of Shadows (Mass Market Paperback)

J.V.Jones continues with her impressive story in this, the third book, of the 'Sword of Shadows' series.

Again, as with the first two books in the series, the quality of the prose is the one defining feature that stands out in Jones' writing skills.

With the use of superb pacing and a group of main characters that continue to grow, the author has woven a magical tale that reeks of old lore, intriguing situations and the occasional epic battle. I found that the slow, careful manner in which the main people were developed, gave me the time to really feel an emotional attachment to them; in fact, although you may not particularly like some of the villains, you at least could understand their point of view and they did earn a measure of grudging respect.

This book expands the number of people it follows on a sequential basis; as with the earlier books, it primarily focuses on Raif, Ash and Effie, but this book also follows more closely characters that seemed to have a more peripheral role in the previous books, those being Bram Cormac, Marafice Eye and Raina Blackhail.

Conclusion:
A fantasy/adventure book/series of the absolute highest quality; the story and the quality of writing are a perfect marriage. I can hardly wait for the next installment.

Ray Nicholson
