Quicksilver's Knight

By Christopher Stasheff

Book Overview

SWORDS AND SORCERY SOME GUYS HAVE IT ALL...

Geoffrey Gallowglass, the Lord High Warlock's second son, has only two passions in life: war and women. As a knight-errant, he roams the Kingdom of Gramarye looking for wrongs to right and women to woo... but no one has held his interest for very long.

Until he meets Quicksilver, a fiery warrior woman as beautiful as she is deadly, with a tongue as sharp as her sword. Has Geoffrey finally found his perfect woman?

There's only one problem: Quicksilver is the bandit chieftain who has conquered her lord's land and castle, and Geoffrey is the Royal Knight sent to defeat and capture her.

Is love hopeless? Or can Geoffrey find some way face her before an altar, not an army?

Customer Reviews

My Favorite

I've read all of the "Warlock" series, as well as the "Wizard" series (Warlock's son, Magnus) and "Wizard in Rhyme series) and this is by far, my favorite of them all! It's extremely well written! It's touching and sensitive, without being sappy; yet full of adventure and the quick, dry wit fans have come to expect from Stasheff. I would have given it more than five stars if there had been the option.

Stasheff in High Style

Quicksilver's knight is a reader's delight. Well crafted from beginning to end, it draws together all the elements of the universe the author has created for the Gallowglass clan, including an encore performance by our favorite villainess, Diane Finister, whose everchanging appearance has managed to confuse the family so far, and whose determined malevolance certainly keeps a plot moving. Quicksilver is a terriffic character, "cut from whole cloth" so to speak, as Stasheff manages to not only make her a very real person, but manages to enlist us in her cause. Even a novice in Granmarye can follow the storyline, and as usual, the fast paced action is a tremendous aid in suspending our disbelief. Thumbs up for another Stasheff success!

I thought that this book was wonderful.

Geoffery Gallowglass is bored of every day things. He wants something exciting to happen. He sure got what he asked for. He is stuck between turning a beautiful bandit captin in and letting her live on her own. He then meets a stunning witch, and has to decide between the two. Some choice, eh?

Geoffrey Gallowglass takes his turn at entering adulthood.

I just read this book over again for the third or fourth time. Like all of the "Warlock" series, it was interesting on multiple levels. The High Warlock's middle son, Geoffrey Gallowglass, finds adventure, romance, intrigue, treachery, romance, intellectual challenge, comradery, wrongs to right, skullduggery and plenty of fun, as well as enough food for thought to keep him busy for years to come. This is a coming-of-age novel that is a delight. It fits in well with his sister Cordelia's story, M'Lady Witch, and is much easier reading than his brother Magnus' equivalent tale, Warlock and Son.

One of Stasheff's best. Exciting, Romantic, and Inspering.

I thought the Quicksilver's Knight was one of Cristopher Stasheff's best books for The Warlock Series. His writing was just amazing as usual. I loved the fact that in this book he put in a few new twists from his usual writing. I just couldn't put the book down. Every fight was discribe so well. When Stasheff discribed the feelings between Quicksilver and Geffory it just made my heart feel for them as no other book has. It has so many feelings that people can relate to and gives others things to think about. This book gives you every reason not to put it down till the very end, you never know what will happen next! I seriously advise reading it and all the Warlock books
