Great finale to this trilogy. This noval picks up straight after the events of the previous installment (black wizard's). I won't go into detail for fear of potential spoilers. A few nice, if not predictable little twists at the start. This sees are usual group of intrepid adventurers making the journey across Gwynneth to the source of evil spreading from the darkwell and the final confrontation with Bhaal and his minions.
Pretty much the same cast of characters as the previous noval, with a few new fringe characters added into the pot. I really like the discriptive use of words the author uses for the environment and atmosphere- i will be checking what other books Douglas Niles has written.
This novel will appeal to any fan of the FR setting. Needless to say, it's adviseable that you have read the previous two installments of the trilogy.

The Darkwell, one of the best books I have read!
17 July 1998
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This is perhaps one of the best books I know of! It has a touch of everything, from violence to magic to romance and even sadness. It follows the adventure of the young King Tristian Kendrick, the Druid Robyn, whom he is in love with and his best friend Daryth, an assasin by trade. The setting is the Moonshae isles, after the darkwalker wars have passed, yet evil still stirs! An amazing book that shows that the forces of good dont all ways win! Nothing short of Brilliant! There are some scenes you will want to read again and again! Love, betrayl, war, scandal and magic. A massive combination!

AMAZING TRILOGY!!!
5 Jun 2004
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Definitely a great fantasy epic and one of my personal favorites, The Moonshae Trilogy- Darkwalker on Moonshae, Black Wizards, and Darkwell, brings to life the little known Moonshae Isles set in the magical world of Toril. The books are so incredibly well written that the reader feels that they have been transported to another plane of existence and are actually present among the characters, seeing what they see, feeling what they feel, sensing what they sense. The author, Douglas Niles, has truly outdone himself and has presented us with a masterpiece of literature the likes of which we have seen only in JRR Tolkien's work and RA Salvatore's The Dark Elf and Icewind Dale trilogies, and in authors Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman's Dragonlance Chronicles and Legends trilogies. Magic, Gods and Heroes are all about. A GREAT book indeed and a must read if you love Fantasy and especially if you love the Forgotten Realms! DON'T MISS IT!!!

A must read Forgotten Realms series!
11 April 2002
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I have read this series many times and it is still as good today as it was the first time I read it, almost 15 years ago.
I think the plot is one of the more interesting in the fantasy genre. Tristan and Robyn along with many other interesting characters are trying to defend their Isle/Goddess from the attacks of an evil god and his minions. I enjoyed the fantastic creatures, especially the little Psuedodragon as the comic relief.
I hope they re-issue this series so more people can enjoy this wonderful story filled with werewolves, unicorns, sea creatures, magic and intense battles.
Find it or borrow it! A must read.
