Rating: Summary: Most powerful book ever to be a sequel Review: Amazing trilogy, to be the best I have seen! The Prince was a grand twist as well as the Duuk-Tarath{Pardon misspeling} The saga is worth all the tresures on earth and Trimhalli
Rating: Summary: Outstanding Review: I can't even begin to explain how great this book is. It is a terrific sequel to the first in the Darksword series. Without saying to much Joram comes out from under his illusion of having magic and he fulfils the first half of the Prophecy. A must read. I would recomend this book to anyone.
Rating: Summary: I kept thinking it would get better, but it didn't. Review: I read Forging the Darksword, Doom of the Darksword, and finally Triumph of the Darksword, wanting to know how it would come out, and hoping, expecting, that it would get better. It did not. The pace drags, the plot fails to hang together, and the characters fail to become real. It was a waste of time reading these, when I could at least have been rereading other, better books in this genre.
Rating: Summary: The second book in a great trilogy Review: In this book Joram is taught how to respect people of power. Saryon battle inside him is growing. Should he turn over Jorman or should he join Joram in finding out the truth behind the dark arts. The search for this knowledge will cost one of the main character's life. More proof that Hickman and Weis know how to write outside of Dragonlance.
Rating: Summary: The Darksword hits the spot! Review: Margaret Weiss & Tracy Hickman have done it again by putting together a masterful world full of rich color and fascinating detail. What does a person do when he is born bereft of magic in a world that overflows with it? Full of action, romance...all the good stuff, and more The Darksword Trilogy is a series fantasy readers (and writers) don't want to miss
Rating: Summary: Between the first and the third Review: New characters appear on the show, adding to the already complex plot. But, the beginning lacks strength, and the middle of the book doesn't pick up either, but the last part booms your brains out. I never expected the final, or the way the different characters play their part. It really amazed me. Great final and preparation for the last book. A bridge, but a good one at that.
Rating: Summary: one of the best! Review: of all the books ive read i dont think any one of them was as neat as doom of the darksword.as Simkin puts it in one of the books "saved by the love of a girl.betrayed by the love of a wretched, bald catalyst.& delivered into the chubby hands of biship Vanya." i never knew Simkin was immortal until i read adventures.this book is a must-read for any Weis/Hickman fan.

Rating: Summary: I kept thinking it would get better, but it didn't. Review: The second installment of the popular Darksword novels takes Joram, Saryon, Mosiah, and Simpkin through an unexpected twisting and turning of events. Our party leaves the Sorcerer's camp for the city of Merilon, where Joram plans to seek his birthright. On the way, they meet Prince Garald of Sharakan, who takes the time to help Joram in a way no one has yet been able to. Merilon brings many hardships for the group; Saryan is suffering with internal conflict to the point he is constantly ill, while Mosiah feels out of place and is eager to leave the city. Joram is eager to seek his fortune, but falls in love in the midst of everything. Simpkin, of course, is doing what Simpkin does best -- being himself. Doom of the Darksword is an intriguing sequel, rife with action, suspense, and deception, including the amusing Illusion of a Thousand Mosiahs. A riveting climax is built through the event commerorating the Dead Prince and culminates in the unexpected Turning to Stone. Joram learns his true birthright and Saryan finally finds peace. Weis and Hickman have written another brilliant novel, one that touches the heart and leaves you begging for more.
