Book Description

Publication Date: 1 Sep 2003 | Series: Sovereign Stone Trilogy

The final volume in the Sovereign Stone trilogy, a gripping fantasy series from the authors of the bestselling DRAGONLANCE books.

Over two hundred years have passed since the mystical Sovereign Stone was shattered and the world of Leorem faced its most dangerous test ever – the rise of the dark lord Dagnarus. And now Dagnarus has stirred from the Void, and seeks the utter conquest of all Leorem. Leading a seemingly unstoppable horde of bestial minions, and a host of the fearsome undead, Dagnarus has conquered kingom after kingdom and now stands before the gates of New Vinnengael itself.

Drawn by an mysterious call, the Dominion Lords, protectors of Leorem, head for the Portal of the Gods, the mystical haunted site of Dagnarus’ terrible treachery two hundred years before. If all the parts of the sundered Sovereign Stone can be reunited there Dagnarus’ unholy plans for domination can be stopped – but one piece is still missing …

As past and present converge in a desperate race to determine the future, an unlikely hero will arise. To save Leorem he must venture into a realm of utter terror and darkness … into the very blackness of the Void itself.

2.0 out of 5 stars An inferior end to a superior tale... 25 Oct 2003
By chris white
Format:Paperback
A shame. A real, shame... The first two books of the series were totally captivating; the finest aspect was the excellent characterisation. I found myself enthralled and moved by Patch, Dunner, Dagnarus, Gustav and particularly the characters within the beautifully crafted paradox of the Elven Nation. The gentile yet violent land of the elves did borrow heavily from Feudal Japanese culture, but I can't think of a more delicate and sensitive portrayal of a poignant moment between two main characters in a book, than with the chance meeting in a garden between Silwyth and the doomed Valura. Ships that pass in the night, perfectly done...

The second book left us all on a knife edge... But that edge was dulled by the formulaic rush of the final instalment, to arrive at some sort of plot resolution. The characters were to my mind eroded by a tangibly forced exposition. I felt that the main characters, which the authors had made me feel so attached to in the past, were simply walked through a series of predictable set-pieces so that the story could be set up for what felt more like a wind-down than a climax. Perhaps it was too much to answer within one book of fewer than 600 pages? The long awaited reckonings between the original characters of the first book never really happened. Certain pivotal characters just seemed to give up the ghost and were simply not referred to again or written out with a whimper rather than with the roar that I expected.

Lastly, I think it is a measure of a good book not to require an epilogue which rushes us through what, why and how the key characters finally finish up as a result of where the story apparently ends - what is worse is it is done like the authors are sketching out their shopping list... Massive events and implications are summarised in just a few words....

5.0 out of 5 stars the bloody rebirth of ancient evil.... 12 Jan 2013
By Gert Niebuhr
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
this story has focus on the evil characters, even the elves are not very sympathic, which is a new kind of story. Very interesting and very gripping. Its difficult to put down this book again. And worth reading again a second time. Weis and Hickman are among my all time favorites, like Brooks, Eddings and Feist. And of course Tolkien.

5.0 out of 5 stars Will the Void take them all? 19 Nov 2012
By Keen Reader TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:Hardcover
This is the third and final part of the Sovereign Stone story. Here we pick up immediately from the end of the second book in the series, Guardians of the Lost. Shadamehr has been badly wounded after he and Jessan escape from the palace in New Vinnangael. Bashae and the Grandmother are wandering alone in the city, and there are dangers beyond their imagining closing in on them. Dagnarus is pulling together his plans for total domination, and will let nothing and no-one stand in his way. And what has happened to Raven and Wolfram? The Vrykyl are shadowing their prey, and who knows what the Elves, Dwarves and other Human kingdoms will do when chaos falls upon them?

This is the culmination of this very exciting, well planned and plotted trilogy, and brings together a multitude of threads in the story to a highly-paced conclusion. The tale comes back in a long circle to end where it began - the city of Old Vinnangael, where all that was wrong will, by the will of the Vinnangaelean gods, be put right. But what that means for all those whose tales we have followed is something you need to read to the end of the book to find out.

Great stuff; rollicking adventure, full of magic, elves, orken, dwarves, taan, the Void, magi, warriors and fair and foul creatures. Highly recommended, as is the whole trilogy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Journey Into the Void 1 Mar 2005
By humanitysdarkerside VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
Lord Dagnarus' search for the Sovereign Stone continues. Our heroes are in different places at the beginning of this book.

Bashae, The Grandmother and Jessan have all arrived at New Vinnangael with Baron Shadamehr and Dominion Lord Damra. Here they are hunted by one of the Vrykyl. It turns out that the king (child) has been replaced by one of the Vrykyl and Baron Shadamehr's role in this book becomes more prominent. They all end up fighting for their lives and some of them succeed, others do not.

Wolfram and Ranessa are still at the Dragon Mountain, with Ranessa as a fledgling dragon. But the world catches up with them and they need to leave the mountain - together once again. This time Ranessa is able to shorten travel time through her dragon abilities.

Jessan's uncle Raven are still in captivity with the Taan. But he finds himself able to better the living conditions of the half-taan through getting them accepted as warriors. He has given his heart to one of them.

In the end all four Dominion Lords who carry part of the Sovereign Stone have to come together. Wolfram, Damra, Shadamehr and the orken Dom.Lord are brought to Old Vinnangael in order to join in the last battle with Lord Dagnarus.

4.0 out of 5 stars An above average conclusion to an above average triology 28 May 2004
By L. Brookes
Format:Paperback
Journey into the Void is the Third in the Trilogy of the Soverigen Stone. Whilst not especially revolutionary in its tale, Margaret Weiss and Tracey Hickman do tell it well.

The story continues on from the first two, following the four sections of a magical stone given to a long dead king by the gods.

The co-authors use a good combination of description, dialogue and action so that while not so gripping that you don't sleep until you've read the whole book through, once you've started you're unlikely to leave the book unfinished.

I didn't find the title too appropriate, it offers a lot more promise than was delivered in both location and mood and I would have liked a more dramatic last few chapters. Though there were the odd few twists in the plot there was nothing that really made me want to desperately know the story's resolution.

Though the cast of characters is large, and so their personas aren't quite as well explored as maybe I would have liked with very little in the way of personal dilema, each character comes across 'real' enough to make for some good character interaction and dialogue.

The story flows well and is set at a good pace. Whilst I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys the fantasy genre there is nothing especially groundbreaking or conterversial about the story. Over all though, a worthwhile read.
