Feels like I'm reading a DND campaign which was fun. I found it surprisingly entertaining at points but it lulled from time to time.

My favourite all time series! I loved these books so much as-well as the following series. Every character is made with intention and purpose, they just don’t make true fantasy books like this anymore!

[Brenda Brewer · Rating 5 out of 5]

Interesting, easy read

The main theme reminds me a lot of The Lord of the Rings. I like how it is an easy reading level since I'm a slow reader to begin with. A chapter at a time was good for me.

Slow and often somewhat mean-spirited.

I like this book. It is a basic fantasy set up, but with better story telling.

Rereading this as an adult though, this story has SERIOUS pacing issues. Some severe lagging areas, some lack of dynamics and drive. It was actually a bit of a slog to read through 20 years later.
