This book makes fantastic use of the well established World of Darkness setting, it is also a good way of introducing yourself to the new clan Novels, as many of the characters that appear in this book, also appear in them. Ghebod Flerming is an extremely competent writer who knows how to draw and hold your attention in a story. Thbe story itself was highly gripping and tense, with an ending that left you desperate for more!
Much of this novel was redundant... just repeated information from the first two novels. In a way, I see the nessecity of this to remind the reader who the characters are and why they are how they are but it gets really old, really fast. All-in-all, I loved the whole trilogy and the introduction of Montrevant from the Grail's Covenant Trilogy was a masterfully nice touch. Good Job, Gherbod.

Well at least it fits into my bookcase
30 April 2000
When reading a commercial tie-in, it would be unfair to expect any great literary triumph, but I endured the entire trilogy expecting, at least, to learn a little more about White Wolf's World of Darkness, and to be told a complete story. Silly me!
What we get in the books isn't too bad, it just that it could have been a lot better. The globetrotting plot fails to capture any of the flavors of its European Settings and Fleming's heavy-handed handling of the prophecy elements of the story detracts from its whole. It also suffers from a very poor ending.
However, the characters are fun, the story is well paced, the action suitably violent, and Fleming obviously knows his stuff about the World of Darkness. If you are playing "Vampire The Masquerade" I would recommend it, but if you are a Storyteller don't expect too much inspiration from it.
