Product Description

Review
'Top-notch fantasy. With excellent use of language in a well-told story...a masterclass writer.' SFFWorld; 'Scenes unfold with the intimacy of live theatre, dialogue resonates as if heard ... The ending has the impact of a sledgehammer ? the sort of conclusion you remember for years and keep revisiting in your imagination.' Glenda Larke 'Miller's debut is a blockbuster story crafted with a strong sense of wonder ... Fans of Fiona McIntosh will devour this book' Nexus

Product Description
The stunning conclusion to the KINGMAKER, KINGBREAKER series. Prince Gar now has the magic for Weather Working and is able to keep his enemies at bay, while Asher has become the most powerful Olken in the history of Lur. For them peace and prosperity seem assured. But Morg, the evil sorcerer mage, remains trapped inside a shattered body. He knows his time is running out and that desperate measures are called for. Unwittingly, Gar and Asher become caught up in a dangerous deception which threatens to tear apart the kingdom and destroy the fragile balance between Olken and Doranen. And no-one, not even Dathne and her secret Circle, is prepared for the consequences when the Innocent Mage is revealed at last...

3.0 out of 5 stars Hmmmmmm...., 4 Oct 2007
By Mr. Daniel Fraser (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
After having read The Innocent Mage I was particularly looking forward to the concluding part of the story. I have to admit however that I was rather disappointed. Of the 680 pages about 650 are spent building up to the mediocre conclusion. After all of the build up I was hoping for something spectacular but the closer it got without anything actually happening the more I suspected that I would be disappointed. Although I found the book enjoyable to read I felt that Kate Miller could has given us a more satisfactory conclusion. I personally feel the books would work better as a trilogy with more devoted to the final battle. The story had a lot of potential but this is never fully explored. I would still recommend this book to those who have read The Innocent Mage but sadly it receives only 3 stars to the 5 stars I gave the first installment.

3.0 out of 5 stars Almost a final conclusion, 12 Nov 2007
Having thoroughly enjoyed the first book in this two part series, I was looking forward to this. However, although the characterisation remains excellent, the plotting is really too thin to make this anything other than average.

On the basis of both books I think Karen Miller's writing in terms of style and richness of chracterisation is excellent, but she needs a more involving plot to produce a truly exclennt book or series.

2.0 out of 5 stars Was not impressed, 8 May 2008
By S. Cox "Scary" (Bristol, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I read the first book thinking it would be a story in itself. This was not the case. The first book finishes on a cliff hanger to hand over to the second book. Perhaps I was expecting too much?

I found myself getting frustrated by the story line as there was too much space between the major events and not enough to keep me ticking over. I found myself slogging through the book in order to get to the major events which really should be the case.

I was also disappointed by the ending as throughout the book Karen Miller had taken the time to go into great detail and then within the last 50 pages it was all over with lots of questions about the ending - it all seemed a bit rushed to me and a bit neat...

I would be reluctant to pick up another book by this author for fear of wasting my hard earned reading time.
