It's one of the two FR books that I wanted to throw across the room when I finished reading it.

Don't be a tease, what's the second one?

Yeah it wasn't the best Realms book by far, but it does take the reader to some uncharted geographical areas which I always love.


In Old Dethek, "Troy Denning" translates to "caveat emptor".


"The very best possible post-fourteenth-century Realms lets down those who love the specific, detailed social, political and magical situation, with its thousands of characters, developed over forty years, and want to learn more about it; and those who'd be open to a new one with equal depth, which there just isn't time to re-produce; and those repelled, some past the point of no return, by the bad-taste-and-plausibility gap of things done to the world when its guardianship was less careful."
