5.0 out of 5 stars A remarkable blend of simplicity and complexity! 19 May 1999
By A Customer
Format:Hardcover
One does not know the complexities to the simple man. The antihero herdsman in this tale, weaves the reader through the realities of living a simple existance intertwined with the fantasy of other-world imagination. With the last utterances of a dying stranger, Etjole Ehomba, shepard of sheep, curator of cattle, introduces the unwary reader into the mysteries of brotherhood and honor, of war and peace, of courage and duty. Together with two heartily enjoyable and very unlikely fellow travelers, Etjole leads us north into adventures that could only exist in the imagination of Alan Dean Foster!

As an avid, and almost singular, reader of hard science-fiction, this book came as a suprise and delight!

Thanks Mr. Foster!

5.0 out of 5 stars Foster at his best 25 Aug 2005
By humanitysdarkerside VINE™ VOICE
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Etjole Ehomba has led his companions through the jungle, veldt, and desert. Now to reach the fabled port of Hamacassar, the simple herdsman must trek through deadly "civilized" lands where flowers wage war, dogs herd lightning, demons govern the darkness, and Time itself can be held captive. In this new world the tribesman must rely upon his friends, wondrous weapons, and the magic of memories so potent they can raise the dead or bring the sea to dry land. But no matter where he goes, every seer and sage Ehomba meets offers the same prophecy - his quest will end in failure and death.

Both this and the previous book in this series are of exceptional quality. Mr. Foster manages to reel my attention into his creation and keep it there.

5.0 out of 5 stars amusing and original 8 Jun 2000
By larose-t
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I liked the second book as much as the first. I found this long journey entertaining and surprising, astonishingly so, It is a good story and its humour is pleasant. I had difficulties leaving the book aside and gladly lost a few hours of sleep to finish it.
