Rating: Summary: One of the best! Review: This blasted book kept me up late when I should have been drooling on my pillow. I could not put it down, but the first two in the trilogy must be read before making this journey. One of their best works.
Rating: Summary: Another Solid Write Review: This concluding novel of the Sovereign Stone Trilogy binds together the fates of characters from the first two novels into a satifying but somewhat rushed conclusion. The steps leading up to the confrontation between Dagnarus and the Dominion Lords were meticulously described, but the confrontation itself was short and not quite as good as the rest of the story.As with every novel by Weis and Hickman, the characters, with their strengths and foibles, are the strongest part of the tale. One is always provided with enough details to make the villans not so villanous, with characteristics that humanize them.The threads of the story are tied up in a neat package, making one hope that there will be other novels to describe exactly what happens to the characters, particularly with Raven and his half taan spouse. All in all, this was an enjoyable series with the second book of this series being the best.
Rating: Summary: Good book but I expected a better ending Review: This final book in the trilogy succeeds in its purpose of closing the "Sovereign Stone" story but leaves many things open. I guess that is material for other books. Though this book, and the series in general, isn't as powerful and immersive as the Dragonlance series it is pretty good and I would recommend it to any Weiss/Hickman fan. The four star rating was given because the ending was, in my opinion, lame.
