About the author

"I'm a writer, kind of impulsive but shy. Loyal to my friends, tend to take things personally more than I should. Very stubborn, but will listen to reason when I give it a chance. Don't talk much but difficult to shut up when I start. Easily distracted by shiny objects and bright colors. There isn't really much of a point to this page. Not the biggest fan of Myspace in general, except when I want to see hideously ugly websites for the unintended comedy value - it's got a lot of those. At this point it'd just be more effort to take it down than to leave it out there. It's not doing any harm, and sometimes a friend says hi. That can be a good thing. I do check my messages and whatnot but don't expect a lot of updates. You have permission to be heartbroken" - Rich Wulf

Stellar second entry, with captivating story, developments and more background exploration. Literally the only issues are "cosmetic" - apparently an editor wasn't a part of the deal, as a "Zed and Tristram looked at Tristram" types of errors were present on more on one confusing occasion. But that honestly just contributes to the "indie gem" vibe I am getting from Rich Wulf. Special kudos for him actually doing more justice to the overall ominous nature of the Draconic Prophecies than the series from Wyatt that literally is named after them, lol.

Great middle entry in the series. Artificer Tristam Xain moves a bit more to the center of things, along with his relationship with Seren (though just barely), while the secondary characters, especially inquisitor Zed Arthen and Sentinel Martial Eraina, get more time to shine, as the crew races as far as the Frostfell and the Mournlands in search of the pieces to Ashram d'Cannith's powerful Legacy.

This book was SIGNIFICANTLY better than the first book. The first was a slow explanation of the world and story building and collecting of the crew.

This book however was jammed pack with action. So much easier to read through than the first. Looking forward to reading the third.

Found it to be a good conclusion to a fun adventure. If you're interested in learning more of the feel of Eberron as a setting, I'd recommend this trilogy.

Absolutely love the setting, overall story is solid. Interesting interpretation of what Metrol and the Mournland would be like. The shift over to a broader focus on all the characters is appreciated.
