Customer Reviews

Best trilogy ever!!

I thought that the adventures of Drizzt D. could not be beaten, and I now stand corrected. I read the entire trilogy in one week, because the action was just too good to set the books down! Another reviewer mentioned that Brianna was irritating, and I agree. Yet, you have to hate somebody in a good story, just as much as you should fall in love with the hero. I would avise anyone that this is the Trilogy you cannot pass up.

Overall, a very good book

When I first heard about this series, I wasn't sure how good it was going to be when the story revolved around giants. I was wrong. This is actually one of the better trilogies in the Forgotten Realms setting. There is a well-developed storyline, most of the characters are likeable, and the descriptions involving battles both against the weather and the antagonists are quite good. Now, the bad part. I absolutely hated Brianna. She is spoiled, selfish, and stupid--and it only gets worse in the two following novels. Now the main character, Tavis, on the other hand, is an extremely likeable character, who is doing everything within his power to save Brianna. This is the main problem I found with the series. Because Brianna was such an annoying character, I didn't even want Tavis to save her. My advice is: try to ignore Brianna's infuriating nature, and you will probably enjoy the series.

A very excellent book

I though this book was absoulutely fabulous! It was packed with incredible amounts of action and more! The stroy was great. Morten, Queen Briannas gaurd in the story, was very cool.

The entire series is worth reading!

If you were told that this book was abounding with page-turning fantasy adventure, it would be an understatemant. Not only is the overall plot addicting, but the action never stops as Troy Denning brillaintly makes a hero out of Tavis Burdun and a worthy enemy of the ogres. After reading the Twilight Giants trilogy, you'll wonder why Denning dodn't write more
