Feist does it again

I know I'm prejudiced in my review because Raymond E. Feist has always been my favorite author, however this book has it all.It's probably not a great book if you haven't read the Riftwar saga which I wholeheartedly recommend you read first.This book is a great return to that world and the characters in it. As that world has changed over the years with new books some characters are sadly gone. Without spoiling anything, these books falling in the middle of the timespan of all the books, bring back some characters and it's like seeing old friends again.I always look forward to new Feist/Riftwar-world novels and hope for many more in the years to come.If I had to give one downside to this book was that it was short (being an adaptation of a video game) and was over much quicker than I would have liked.

A novel that should more than satisfy paitent Feist Fans

Here we have a book that surely offers nothing new, but it does offer a further look into the past events prior to the serpentwar series. I feel that this novel is not as bad as some reviewers has put it as. Granted we have a book that does not fully entertain some because we all have different ways we like books to be. I'll say this: if you are a previous fan of Feist's works you will not be dissapointed with this one if you just be paitent with it and realise it for what it is, a bridge the time book.Keeping this in mind you'll easily be able to enjoy the writing style you have always been acustomed to. Feist retains his talent with description and dialogue, and I guarentee that you'll not put this one down until it's complete.I certainly found this an entertaining read. We get to revisit familiar characters such as James the Hand and Locklear before they died in later books and we discover what the whole thing was with the Crawler and the Mockers. My advice to those who still do not like these books: just be paitent with Mr. Feist. He is doing his best to write something we'll like. Just wait, soon enough the "Dark War Saga" will be upon us.

Overall an excellent book.

I personally thought that this book was an excellent read in a way that it had an intriguing plot which kept you just turning the pages. In this book, you see the link from other of Feist's books, the later Serpentwar Saga and the in between books. Had he wrote his books all in order, completing this before the Serpentwar Saga, etc, it would have been more suspenseful. As a result, you lose some of that suspense and know that they'll live. I'm a little disappointed but impressed with this 'linking' book, knowing that the next book will simply be another game based book of Return to Krondor. But still a very good book.

a great read

Raymond Feist delivers again, this book is much better than krondor the betrayal, I loved william: pug's son, and how it showed how he first started climbing the ladder of power. Feist weaves a great story with obsorbing characters and a great plot. The only thing bad about this is having to wait for the next book in the series.

Feist continues his excellence!

Feist writes another epic fantasy and proves why he is foremost among modern fantasy authors. An absorbing plot and characters that you care about make it an excellent read. It is also nice to read adventures about Jimmy the Hand, Arutha, Locklear, and the rest of the Riftwar characters again. Although Krondor the Betrayal seemed a bit mechanical, Krondor the Assassins recaptures the magic that makes his stories the most interesting on the market today. I can't wait for the next one!
