Great page turner

One of the best books I have read, if you love a good page turning adventure this is the book for you. I couldn't put the book down. the story is well formed and written. Thought out the series I have become very acquainted with Uskevren clan, Tazi is one of my favorites. I love the way she handles herself through this perilous journey to redeem her soul. I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a trilling adventure

Another good one in the Sembia series

I have to agree with the majority that have posted here when I saw I really liked the book. Sort of funny to read the review before mine, though. I always laugh when people have some critisim of another's work when they can't even bother to check their own spelling. :)Tazi gets herself back together, but...spoiler...I sort of wonder what's going to happen to her as she loses those closest to her. Should be an interesting journey for her.Eagerly waiting for Tazi's next story!

Tazi Rocks!

I've gotta agree with the other review that this book isn't as gory as some of the other FR books, but it was thrilling anyway!Tazi finally has herself back together and everybody better watch out.I was glad that most of the family wasn't in the story very much because it would have been hard for her to do what she had to without all of them trying to lend a hand. And this was something Tazi had to do alone. While I didn't get everything I wanted out of the ending, Ms. Whitney-Robinson didn't cop out with a Hollywood one.Definitely want more of her!

I Like Her!

I've been waiting for this story since her debut in Halls of Stormweather and was not let down. Not as much hack-n-slash as some FR books, but good nonetheless.Without giving away too much, Tazi goes on an extended trek to save her friend and herself. What she finds at the end is not exactly what she thought she would.I think Tazi is becoming my favorite female FR character, right behind Arilyn and Storm Silverhand. It's hard to find good books where the main protagonist is a girl, but Tazi holds her own.Hope to see more of her!

enjoyed every page...

A friend recommended this series to me, and I was pleasantly surprised to find myself engrossed in every aspect of this story. Voronica Whitney-Robinson's creativity and vivid descriptions, from the Dark Bazaar to the Calim Desert, consistently left me eager to get to the next step in Tazi's journey. Highly recommended for everyone! Well done, Voronica.
