The story goes on...,

This review is from: The Golden Orb (Dragonlance: The Icewall Triogy) (Mass Market Paperback)
My first Amazon buy, a long time ago.
Douglas Niles keeps the story going with his well paced and easy to read writing, in a story that combines the best and worst of human kind (and orc in this case!). A page-turner in my opinion, but I'm a bit addicted to reading so I might be a suspect saying this :)

Great second book in trilogy,
By Russell P. Horton - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Golden Orb (Dragonlance: The Icewall Triogy) (Mass Market Paperback)
Set eight years after the first book in the trilogy, this is an excellent fantasy novel and part of a terrific trilogy. It answers a lot of questions from the first book and develops the familiar characters even further. Readers do not need prior exposure to the Dragonlance world to enjoy this book. And don't stop here, the final book in the trilogy (Winterheim) is excellent as well!

Satisfied,
By "tooimaginative" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Golden Orb (Dragonlance: The Icewall Triogy) (Mass Market Paperback)
I've always been a fan of stories involving elves, and the Icewall Trilogy has given me a new view of them. This book features the same characters as The Messenger, mainly Kerrick Fallabrine and Moreen Bayguard. I was hoping to see some romantic involvement between them, but no dice, though there were some hints. The book was centered around the ogres' plot to destroy Brackenrock completely with the golden orb, an explosive device created by the alchemist, whose origins are eventually revealed. Kerrick learns some interesting information about the fate of his parents, and Moreen has changed quite a bit since The Messenger. I liked this book a lot, but I wish I knew when the third one was going to be released.

Straightforward and Entertaining Adventure,
By T. Lin "DramaQueen" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Golden Orb (Dragonlance: The Icewall Triogy) (Mass Market Paperback)
The Golden Orb is fantasy I like - straightforward entertaining fantasy adventure. Sometimes we need books like these, uncomplicated by political intrigue so rife in fantasy books these days (Eg. The Game of Thrones). Some say this simplicity sacrifices story quality, but I see nothing like this here!The Golden Orb continues after The Messanger. I'm a little dissapointed that we did not see much of Kerrick's character developing and am stuck with yet another 'save the Arktos' adventure. So let's hope that the final book will see Kerrick returning to Silvanesti and showing those snobbish elves what he's made of. |
