Rating: Summary: Great story that will keep you interested all day. Review: Best Magic The Gathering book ever. Well written and very exciting. Gets into deep detail and you can't ask for much more in a book if you love reading fantasies.
Rating: Summary: The best book I have ever read Review: Clayton Emery writes the most exciting fantacy books I have ever read. He describes every detail of the battle scenes.
Rating: Summary: The Best Magic: The Gathering book, hands down. Review: I have been an avid magic player for seven years now and this book captures the essence of the game more than any of the other books do. In Magic players summon creatures without thinking twice about them, but this book explains, for the first time, where they come from. Every creature has a story. The newer Magic books do an excellent job of keeping the storyline for the game together, but this original story (along with it's two sequels "Shattered Chains" and "Final Sacrafice") are the best of the lot. They tell the story of Gull, a simple woodcutter and his sister Greensleves and how wizards change their lives forever.

Rating: Summary: It could have been better Review: I tried to read the MTG books in the order they were published, and after reading Arena, I was very surprised by the difference. Also, you can't expect all the books to be the same. I think the book was good -- the plot was almost too predictable and the main characters are developped nicely. The name of the characters is another matter: they are way too "green" related. I used it with my students, and they seemed to have liked it more than I did.
Rating: Summary: great but not as good as the first Review: If you have read my review on Arena then you know what I'm talking about.After my friend let me read Arena he gave me this and and shattered chains the third book. I'm still reading the third but I thought this one was good. it had a great story line, great characters, and great ideas for decks for magic players. If you like magic you will love this book.
Rating: Summary: An execelent book for players of the game. Review: It is a book I would recomend for anyone who is either a fan of the seris or just picked it up off the shelf. If you play the game it would be an excelent book to base a few specialty decks on. If you don't play the game it is a fairly good fantasy adventure story. My suggestion, read it.
Rating: Summary: This is the WORST M:tG novel ever!!!! Review: The characters and events were unoriginal and not very imaginative, the storyline was hoaky and reminded me of the old 1950's sci-fi movie plots. It might just be me, who knows... Buy Magic: the Gathering, Arena instead, for the same price it's 1000x's the book, action, and suspense!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rating: Summary: Interesting story, not the greatest writing style... Review: The plot of this book was pretty interesting, especially the last part of it. It seemed to drag on a lot, though. The first part of the story in particular dragged on a bit. Still a rather fun book to read if you've played Magic before, though.
Rating: Summary: Dive into the story of Gull and Greensleeves! Review: This was a really good story of Gull, the woodcutter and his sister, Greensleeves, a mage who doesn't know she is. The descriptions are so good, I could read them over and over.
