Summary: Best book you could possibly read
Review: All of William Horwood's books are powerful and filling you with such an urge to go fourth and read more. You certaintly aren't wasting any time picking up this book, Duncton Tales.I love how the moles will die under the Stone, how they would rather fall into their blood than see their beloved faith - Stone, be mistreated. I enjoyed how they set in the mole's religion perfectly, to me. I hope more people will turn themselves to this awesome book, and learn of love, hate, death and faith.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Sigh...
Review: As I've noted in my reviews of the other books, William Horwood has created a fantasy world in his Duncton series that is ( indead ) on a par with that of Tolkien. The big gripe I have with this book is that he's given his moles a religion that's a direct parody of the Christian faith he now longer accepts. In this series, his protagonist will end up being executed for the salvation of his follower moles in much the same way as Jesus Christ. Why drag religion into a genre that's noted for being secular? As 'n Christian I enjoy fantasy reads, but not William Horwood any more - I can't stomach the sacreligous plagiaterism he commits against the Bible.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A brilliant book!
Review: Steyn reyne in thine herte, Staye thee hol and soint, Me desire wot I none, Blessed be thou and ful of blisse!

The book was just as good as the others in the previous series, the Duncton Chronicles. I was inspired to read the following books - Duncton Rising and Duncton Stone! I recommend the books to anybody!
