Great seller

The book came in the mail in about 4 days, perfect timing and in excellent condition. Great seller!

Good Book

This was a good read and a good conclusion to the Odyssey Block. The book picks up right where Torment left off - Chainer is dead and Cabal City is in ruins. Kamahl has finally come to wield the Mirari, however his designs for it are not necesarily good ones. He disguises his designs for power by deluding himself into believing that he is the one to unite his people, since he wields the Mirari. As the book progresses however, it becomes clear that Kamahl has been driven practically insane by the power of the artifact and his desire for control. Will he return to his senses? You will have to read to find out! Meanwhile, Laquatus, foiled again by Empress Llawan in his attempts to get the Mirari for his own personal benefit, remains stuck in his portal prison. That is, until one day, when he discovers one of the infamous sub-continent tunnels which leads to his escape. With Laquatus up to his old tricks again, the continent is once again in for a vicious cycle of lies, false alliances and deception. While the book is good and the plot intriguing, it does have its dull and confusing moments. Therefore, I have to rate it only four stars. However this was an excellent conclusion to the Odyssey Block and, as always, leaves us wondering, "What next?"

Great book

I enjoyed this book alot it set everything up very well for the final confrentation between Laquatus and Kamhal, and how the Order and the Cabal interact with each other, and dealing with the power of the Mirari. Good wrap up book that made you wonder what could happen in Onslaught.

Great Book, Some Flaws

When reading this book your attentiveness to it will weaver a lot. Like most Magic books,many events are happening at once, and unfortunantly there all not that interesting. And in many of the events that do occur, their constant aperance or relevence to each other make the story seem repetitve. Plus the author doesn't seem to hold true to rules he sets for his characters. By "rules" I mean personality and phisical abilites. One moment a character will have no trouble takeing out an oppenent and the next he'll be nearly killed when taking on someone who is supposed to be "weaker." Enough with all these negitive comments, you would think I would give this only 1 star. This book, through all of its troubles does have some good features. The sudden character changes will surprise you and the plot twists will have you on the edge of your seat. The descriptions are of nothing short of excelence. The greatest aspect of this book though is that you don't have to read the first two books ahead of this one. As Judgment's storyline progress it explains everything that has happened in the cycle and I mean everything. Overall this book is a great conclustion to the cycle and once again leaves you with the question "Whats next?".
