5.0 out of 5 stars Good Story, Good Plot and good reading, 23 Sep 2005
By shaz17 (England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Cast in Shadow (Paperback)
Seven years ago Kaylin fled the crime-riddled streets of Nightshade, knowing that something was after her. Children were being murdered - and all had the same odd markings that mysteriously appeared on her own skin....

Since then, she's learned to read, she's learned to fight and she's become one of the vaunted Hawks who patrol and police the City of Elantra. Alongside the winged Aerians and the immortal Barrani, she's made a place for herself, far from the mean streets of her birth.

But children are once again dying, and a dark and familiar pattern is emerging. Kaylin is ordered back into Nightshade with a partner she knows she can't trust, a Dragon lord for a companion and a device to contain her powers - powers that no other human has. Her task is simple - find the killer, stop the murders...and survive the attentions of those who claim to be her allies!
First I have read by this Author and wont be the last. Its well written, witty and also has danger and tragedy. But cant wait for the next one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Extraordinary, 25 Sep 2007
By OliverD (Haxby, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cast in Shadow (Paperback)
I have been buying quite a lot of authors that are new to me recently, and this is the pick of the bunch. A world as vividly imagined as Tolkien's, but the facts appear slowly; a desperately serious plot; an appealingly drawn and only too human heroine with a mystery in her past; supernatural evil that has been checked but not wholly eradicated by the end of this, the first of a series. I would recommend it to anyone interested in serious fantasy.

4.0 out of 5 stars good but Im still not sure I understand, 30 Jul 2007
good read, interesting characters and a good plot but the explainations just dont go far enough. All the characters stop just before we get to the part that makes everything make sense. a bit frustrating but I couldnt put it down.
