Summary: Magician: A Fast Paced, Wonderfully Written Story
Review: Magician: Apprentice as well as Magician: Master are both excellent books. The author cleverly begins out superficially and eventually draws you deep within Medkemia into the exciting climax. The excellent description of the characters in exquisite detail renders the reader speechless and very emotional. Circling around the lives of two boys, Pug and Tomas, the story ingeniously draws you into the world of Medkemia and Kelewan as the foreshadowing of the climax eventually proves only to make the book even better.

Summary: MAGICIAN:GREATER THAN LORD OF THE RINGS
Review: This is the BEST book I have ever read. The characters have been cleverly designed and the storyline has been thought out to perfection. When reading the opening chapters, you get a full sense of comfort and are drawn in by the ingenious plot. Having read the Hobbit and Lord Of The Rings, and can truly say that this is better. For months, I was reading all of the Raymond E Feist books, and for months I was ignoring my homework and hobbies. It really changed my life around. Anyone out there who hasn't read this book must, and anyone who has read it must read it again. Your sense of mystery increases and you can't put the book down for a second-literally. Once you've read this book,you've got to read the rest as this book grabs your attention so drastically and draws you into the world of Midkemia. It's like being at home in a foreign. The plot has been established perfectly,and you receive many different storylines which all come together towards the end. You feel so satisfied at the end of the book when the characters are rewarded so thoroughly, and justice is done, a truly miraculous book.

Summary: A Tale of Two Worlds
Review: This book was really one of the best I have ever read with the exception of the ending. I thought that it could have used a little work. That is the only reason I gave this book 4 stars instead of 5. I thought that it was interesting that Raymond E. Fiest used the idea of traveling between two worlds. The plot and the story always kept me involved in the book. Overall I think that this was a great book.

Summary: Magician
Review: I have read all of Rammond E Fiests books to date, including the series that takes place on Keelewan and can safley say that his first one, was one of the best. A great storyline, chatacters and plot were just a few of the things that made this book seem so real. If you like you books to come alive and keep you up till all hours in the morning this is the book for you. The worlds which are created here are ones which you may wish exsisted. And it must be said that with the amount of detail that goes into this book and the rest of the series it certainly seems to be possible. Anyway enough rambling on, if you want a great read to start you on a new serries then this is it. Even if you just read the first three books this is a great series. From NCEF5@Yahoo.com

Summary: Rivals Jordan, Goodkind, and Tolkien. Check it out.
Review: This book is very superbly crafted. You never get bored with the characters or the plot. The wrld building is great. I always hear that in fantasy novel descriptions but I am not just throwing that word out here. This one is great! If you are waiting for some of the other series to finish up read this Riftwar Series. It is not just a filler between great fantasy books but one that you will remember for a long time. May make those other books seem like fillers with Feist's new series coming out. In any case, the bottom line is that if you like fantasy get this book because it will not disappoint

Summary: Feist your eyes on this!
Review: If your a lover of magic and legends, this is a book you just can't miss. Right from the start it captures your imagination, and you really find yourself reading for hours. The characters have such depth, the plot is so unpredictable, and the world of Midkemia is as intricate as Tolkiens Middle-Earth. Even if you've read the old edition of Magician, the authors preferred edition is still unmissable. It looks deeper into the characters and the plot lines become even more interesting. And what is even better for new Feist readers, it is only the start. Enjoy!

Summary: Even better!
Review: The author's preferred edition gives you even more insight to Pug and Thomas. It really made a difference to re-reading the other books in the series with the added information. You find out so much earlier about the changes the golden armor makes in Thomas. You also read more about the links between Pug and Mara in Feist's related series. Pug's final magicians trial is also so much more informative, more pieces fall into place. The role of Marcos is more evident in the preferred edition. It has become one of my very favorite books, inspiring my imagination. Feist is a marvel at weaving a very detailed story, keeping the reader very involved.

Summary: A book for fantasy lovers
Review: If you are a medieval times nut (such as myself), you do not want to miss this book. It revolves around the adventures of Pug, a yound aspiring magician. As the story progresses the character development is excellent. Feist has written a masterful story here, full of magic and intrigue.

Summary: Solid stuff
Review: Raymond Feist knows how to tell a story.Don't expect deep and meaningful literature, expect to be entertained by a great story. These are books from my childhood that I've re-read since and liked just as much the second time through. As I said with David Edding's "Belgariad", the books have everything that most fanasy readers want, the move along nicely, you like the characters and the struggles are titanic and you get to see the many different levels of the conflict, from one person's small problems, to armies in the field, to the cosmic struggle between gods. The "Rift War" is Feist's best and in my opinion, he hasn't yet matched it with his subsequent novels except perhaps his "Daughter of the Empire" series with Janny Wurts.
