Product Description

Review

Praise for the Well of Echoes series: 'A page-turner of the highest order ... Irvine can now consider himself comfortably ranked next to the works of Robert Jordan and David Eddings. Formidable' SFX on GEOMANCER, 'The complex cultures, detailed geography, and the palpable weight of history provide a solid background to an intense story ... this stands out as a worldbuilding labour of love with some truly original touches' LOCUS on GEOMANCER

Book Description

The third volume in the sweeping epic fantasy series The Well of Echoes.

Fantastic! 17 Mar 2004
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
Alchymist is the third book of four in the Well of Echoes series. As each book is at least 700 pages long then getting involved with the series shouldn't be taken lightly. This is because it is entirely captivating, and if you do get caught up in the story, you will NEED to keep reading.
Alchymist follows the same kind of pace, structure and writing style as other Ian Irvine books i.e. it is extremely well written in terms of its characters and narrative and builds a staggering amount of momentum in the epic scale of its' story. In fact this is probably the best book that he's had published so far.
Having read the two previous novels in the series is really essential to understanding this book.
The beliefs and ideas I held about each of the characters (all flawed and very believable) were changed or entirely subverted by the twists and turns of the book.
The book as well as the world upon which it is set is dark, yet full of adventure.

I won't reveal as single detail of the plot of this book as half of the real excitement about Ian Irvine's writing is the unknown.
If you haven't read any of the well of echoes series, buy the first book "Geomancer" and I guarantee you will love it.

If you have, I promise you won't be dissapointed.

picked up geomancer from a charity stall and loved it so much went onto buy the other books in the series which was a trilogy but now been extended to a 4 book series. suggest that any sci-fi fan will enjoy reading ian irvine. to read the books in order is a must based on what i have read so far. the characters are very well created and set up in both the first 2 books i have read so far and would exprect no different from the others in the series.
excelent.

Great read 28 Oct 2011
Format:Paperback
Irvine's books are very well written and very readable. He sets a cracking pace and characters grow as the story develops. Do not be put off by the novel's or series' length. They are a really good read.
