Gripping

This saga was realistic. There were no miraculous escapes just because the character was a 'good' guy and one of the heroes (even if you wish there had been). There were no gaping inconsistences to throw the story line off. A straight forward fantasy novel. A good read for many ages. I finished it in one day.

An Excellent Fantasy/Romance read!

An amazing story of Gareth and his bheancoran, a female who protects her prince,Lowra. Gareth, the prince of Skia is in exile from his land overrun with dark magic. He at first takes refuge with his father elsewhere until called back to fetch his father's rune blade, and he has to get a Healer for his dying father. He and his companions travel through many dangers that had me holding my breath hoping that the characters would survive. And then I found myself wanting everthing to be perfect for them because I'd grown to like them so much. This is perhaps on of the best fantasy books I've ever read and I recomend you read it.

Best of the Celae Books ever!

This is the absolute best book in the Celae series so far. The plot is intricately woven around Gareth and his amazing powers of Tyadda Magic. I would recommend reading the Rune Blade Trilogy first, as it lends a considerable amount of insight, but those who have read the first trilogy and liked it MUST move onto the second..

A great start to bet back to Celi

Ann writes a great series and I can't wait till the next book comes out. It's kind of sad to see some of the people are dead but it's a new generation and a new start to get back Celi.

Great Read!

I swooped through this offering in one day, after re-reading the Rune Blade books to refresh my memory of characters and events. I'm impatient to see the rest of this trilogy - HURRY UP ANN!!!!!
