Review # 1 was written on 2019-09-15 00:00:00 Glenn Smith A king is not necessarily a good person. They do what they must to defend their people. Great battles and a great progression of primitive gunpowder technology. Contingency spells for wizards are the key to survival.

Review # 2 was written on 2016-11-13 00:00:00 David Dilling Actual rating is 3.5 stars. This is the second book of a trilogy and the first one must be read before this novel. The war rages on between Ankhar's army and the knights with James as their leader. This was a vast improvement over the first book. My complaint from the first novel was the characters and how I did not like any of them. While we have the cast returning for this book I could get behind some of them. The main character is still a jerk and commits a deplorable act. I believe the author has done this on purpose to show how far the knighthood has fallen. In this book, I could get behind someone like the kender who had more prevalent part or the woman who leads a city that is directly attacked in this war. The selling point of this trilogy is the battle scenes. They are terrific and well detailed as the reader gets to see the progression of the battle and how each battle is won or lost. This trilogy has improved because of this book. It still has some weak points but I did not feel like I was wasting my time like I did with the first book. This book has changed my opinion about this trilogy and I am looking forward to its finale.
