‘An unusually scholarly writer of fantasy.’
THE TELEGRAPH
‘Much as I dislike comparing anything to THE LORD OF THE RINGS, I have to admit that on this occasion it’s justified.’
INTERZONE
‘An extensive and complete world, whose endlessly fascinating details grow book by book.’

Nice book; much less brutal than the current 'in fashion' fantasies
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 March 2017Verified Purchase
As with Kerr's other novels this forms one part of a large skein of events interlinked through time by the people who die and are later reborn - their souls continue quarrels through the lives of many different people.
Versus Game of Thrones, Malazan and Wheel of Time this is a much happier and easier read; the world and locations are smaller, the plot less convoluted and everything follows a medium sized caste who each have their own importance in the grand scheme. It's the sort of thing you want to read when you just want to *enjoy* a book and not be taken through a mental and emotional wringer each chapter. Likewise you don't find yourself losing track of characters and locations if you put the book down for a few days. In no way does this imply Kerr's book is a lesser work - it's just written in a very different timbre.
Would definitely recommend Kerr for any fantasy fan who fancies trying something different.
Although in the grand scheme everything is linked this comes 'later' in the overall telling so if you want to understand and appreciate the key characters and events more I'd recommend reading some of her earlier novels.

Katherine Kerr's Derry novels are some of my all time favourites. Once you are in, you will be hooked.

Great read
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 May 2014Verified Purchase
Bought this used. Received quickly and in good condition. Love the series, particularly the way the stories of the characters are built up by moving backwards and forwards through the volumes, concentrating on a specific period of there lives, and incarnations.

Best series
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 March 2021Verified Purchase
Not the same size as all the other books in the series. Looks out of place on the book shelf.... Still a very good book/series.
