5.0 out of 5 stars WELL DONE TROY DENNING!!!, Jun 4 2004
By L Gontzes (Athens, Greece) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Crucible: Trial Of Cyri (Mass Market Paperback)
If you enjoyed The Avatar Trilogy- Shadowdale, Tantras, and Waterdeep, and the Prince of Lies, you will love Crucible: the Trial of Cyric the Mad, which is the conclusion to this wonderful series set in the magical world of Toril! The books are so incredibly well written that the reader feels that they have been transported to another plane of existence and are actually present among the characters, seeing what they see, feeling what they feel, sensing what they sense. The authors have truly outdone themselves and have presented us with a masterpiece of literature the likes of which we have seen only in JRR Tolkien's work, RA Salvatore's The Dark Elf and Icewind Dale trilogies, and in authors Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman's Dragonlance Chronicles and Legends trilogies. Magic, Gods and Heroes are all about. In conclusion, it's what Fantasy reading SHOULD be. A GREAT book indeed and a "must read" if you love Fantasy and especially if you love the Forgotten Realms! DON'T MISS IT!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Vraiment excellent, May 23 2004
Bon un petit commentaire en français sur ce livre en anglais étant donné la rapidité incroyable de la traduction...

Je dois dire que en tant que 5ème livre sur cyric, ce livre est vraiment super bon et remonte le niveau de cette suite après le prince du mensonge que je trouves moins bon... Je conseil ce livre à tout ceux aimant Cyric, voulant savoir ce qu'il devient une fois fou ou qui aime tout simplement les royaumes.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must read, Jan 3 2004
By Nick Cochran (Kalamazoo, MI) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Crucible: Trial Of Cyri (Mass Market Paperback)
This book is the most amazing fantasy book I have ever read. I loved the first three books of the Avatar series, 4 was good. But this, it takes the cake without question.

The intrgue created and the complexity of the trial allows you to see who the great powers really are. You can see at times, they are quite human and at times blind to anything that is not them.

I couldn't put this down and the last 20 pages made my heart jump out of my chest. I didn't want this one to end. That is for sure.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderfully Unorthodox from the Bad Guy's POV
But unlike the Cyrinishad, this will not make you into a Follower of the One. Yes, Midnight, Kelemvor, Adon, and Cyric (and even Fzoul) are back again, albeit somewhat changed... Read more

A worthy finale to the Avatar series. A certain couple's cheap death really annoyed me but overall the book is... "addictive". Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars It's good but...
...it's, like another reveiwer said, written from Malik's pen. Not that it's bad, but to read a story viewed by a follower of a mad god doesn't agree with me. Read more

First of all, if you haven't read the Avatar trilogy, and Prince of Lies, don't read this book, becouse you'll miss all the plot. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Unexpected masterpiece.
Well, all i can say is that mr Troy Denning has got balls made of solid brass. To dare write a novel in FR series, with main characer evil-hearted is a heroic act. Read more
