Probably my favourite Riftwar book. A lot more action in this one compared to the previous two books. It's also a darker book than the others and Jimmy the Hand (one of my favourite Feist characters) comes into his own.
i am not much of a reader but when my sister, who is a huge reader gave me this trilogy to read i couldn't put it down i found them all equally great!!
This is the second/third (depending on the country and editions you read) in a WONDERFUL fantast/adventure series. Read it. It is REALLY REALLY good. The first book is Magician Apprentice
