Summary: Excellent second book
Review: This book continues the story nicely. By now the Kingpriest has been in power for 20 years, and is bent on eradicating all evil from Krynn. The Kingpriest makes the wizards of Krynn his next target, and means to destroy or capture all the towers of sorcery. Again, the Kingpriest and Cathan grow as characters, although in different directions, as the plot unfolds.
There's a lot of foreshadowing, and since I've forgotten much of the other DL books my suspense is building to see how things will play out!
One thing I really like about this trilogy so far is watching how good, if taken too far, can lead to evil. The story also shows how undying loyalty can lead to dishonor.
Finally, I wish all DL novels were written like this trilogy. This series seems like it is meant for a slightly older/ smarter audience, which is a welcome change from other fantasy. The author pulls this off nicely without being wordy or overly descriptive.
The ending was very cool and I'm ready to read the next one.

Summary: Awsome ...Simply Awsome!!
Review: This book takes place 20 years after Beldinas' rise to power as Kingpriest. He, the clergy, and his Knights of the Divine Hammer are striving to root aut evil every where on Krynn. Cathan the Kingpriest most loyal friend and Knight is faced w/ the decision of going against the KP's wishes or slaughtering the mages. The KP, meanwhile is growing more fearful of evil to the point of fanaticism. The climax is the destruction of two of the towres opf high sorcery.
In few books does the reader get to see how the magic and orders of high sorcery work. And never in the history of any Dragonlance book has ... Fistandantilus has never been delved into so deeply. He is truly frightening... All of the characters are written beutifully and the mages are great! The book moves much faster than Chosen of the Gods. With lots of action and a tad bit of romance.The ending is great and it will have you be saying "Oh that's how that came to be in Legends!" This trilogy is turning out to be one of the better in the Dragonlance line ... of course not as good as Weis & Hickman, but close enough. A good read, I recommend it!
