Alex Jackson's review
of
Flight of the Nighthawks (The Darkwar Saga, #1):
"Now that was a proper fantasy story.
I've never read Feist before but if this is anything to go by, I will quickly become an avid reader of his work. Flight of the Nighthawks felt like everything you could imagine and want in a traditional fantasy no" Read more of this review » |

William Collins's review
of
Flight of the Nighthawks (The Darkwar Saga, #1):
"This was actually the first Feist book I've read and I think it serves as a great introduction to anyone who also hadn't read his other works.
Nighthawks still remains one of my favourite Feist books too. " |

Bradley's review
of
Flight of the Nighthawks (The Darkwar Saga, #1):
"Remember the fun of the original Riftwar saga? Add some polish and shine. Mix it up with new and fun characters from the last few books, and even send some rubes to Kesh. Sound like fun? Make sure the intrigue is high, the stakes are much, much highe"

“Our government rests upon religion. It is from that source that we derive our reverence for truth and justice, for equality and liberality, and for the rights of mankind. Unless the people believe in these principles they cannot believe in our government. There are only two main theories of government in our world. One rests on righteousness and the other on force. One appeals to reason, and the other appeals to the sword. One is exemplified in the republic, the other is represented by despotism.
The government of a country never gets ahead of the religion of a country. There is no way by which we can substitute the authority of law for the virtue of man. Of course we endeavor to restrain the vicious, and furnish a fair degree of security and protection by legislation and police control, but the real reform which society in these days is seeking will come as a result of our religious convictions, or they will not come at all. Peace, justice, humanity, charity—these cannot be legislated into being. They are the result of divine grace.”
