Summary: OUTRAGEOUS
Review: I'm a great fan of this fantasy n-logy and find outrageous that there won't be a follow-up in the series. It's like geting us readers out of the table before serving dessert. I beg the authors to finish it!!!

Summary: Great
Review: The story was exellent, but my hopes of a sequal were dashed. I can't believe there is no seqal. It leaves you hanging, i hate it like that. The first book was better written. The author kid of squeazed so much information into so little space, so it was hard to understand. Other that that, i really enjoyed it.

Summary: Excellent piece of work!
Review: This book continues the tale as vividly as did the first. I have recommended this series to all my friends and family. I have read both books numerous times and have enjoyed them more each time. My only complaint is having to wait for the next one. If you like fantasy that rivals LORD OF THE RINGS, and THE BELGARIAD, it's a must buy!!!!

Summary: Totally Awesome
Review: Well picking up the second of the series, I was not disappointed, it really got into the whole story line, and developed the characters to their peaks. Taking from the Irish Celtic Mythology of Nuada Airegetlamh a leader of the Tuatha De Danann, it has truly given another view of the myths of all times. IT IS WITH GREAT DISPLEASURE THAT I HAVE FOUND OUT THAT THE PUBLISHER IS NOT GOING TO CONTINUE WITH THE FINAL BOOK. If you read this, write to Baen Books and tell them you too are anxiously awaiting the conclusion of this fine series, one so masterfully done, cannot be left incomplete.

Summary: Horrible As well
Review: While it's sad that there is no follow up book, there's probably a reason. The reason is probably that this is the worst thing I have ever seen with Morgan Llywelyn's name on it (Sorry, never read Michael Scott before). She is one of my favourite authors and EVERYTHING else by her that I have read has been magnificent. This repetive plot of boy designated by prophesy must save the world has become tiresome. The Wheel of Time has stretched into oblivion, with the Sword of Truth following afterwards, and it was done 30 years ago with Star Wars. The writer also repeats passages over and over, almost as if to drag the reader out of their sleep and remind tham what they reading. While these passages are appreciated at the start of a sequel, I only want to hear ONCE per book that Gwynne lost her family and is so sad etc etc. Anyway, I highly suggest Llywelyn's other works (Bard, Druids, Finn MacCool, The Red Branch, The Horse Goddess) but The Arcana Series isn't even worth half-price book cost.
