Well, I can't say I was that impressed after reading this (my 4th magic book). It lacked the action and depth the others such as 'Nemesis' and 'The Brothers' War' do. Still, If you collected these books or just want the whle story, there's no reason for not collecting this one. There is also an important link to the main story in the book to the rest, so there's another reason. I have to say that I thought the best section of the book is the 'book catalogue', since it not only lists previous books, but the next 3 books about the Invasion (The 'Invasion Block'!)! Well worth the sneak preview.

Great story on its own, but...
15 Aug 2000
Prophecy was a great book on its own, but it fit in the Masquerade Cycle awkwardly, at best. It contains some vital plot advancement for the series (The Artifacts Cycle, Rath and Storm, and the Masquerade Cycle), but it seems to be tangled up in a relatively unrelated story. I'm hoping it all gets tied together in the upcoming Invasion Cycle, and this book doesn't prove to be relatively random...

Dissenting Opinion
19 Feb 2002
Posted reviews seem to rate the Magic books based on their faithfulness to "official" storylines or whatever's supposed to be written on the back of the cards. In other words, detail over the body of the tale. Let me remind you: Magic is a fantasy world, a world is a living thing, not subject to unbending rules culled from tournaments nor trades; and as fantasy, is meant to give life to drama, not just the cast. As one who has served in the military, I salute Mr. Moore's achievement of depicting real, desperate human emotions despite the temptations of a patently fantastic setting. An immersing read that stands on its own merits.

definately OK
9 Aug 2000
This book was definately OK as a story that learns you more about the background of the card set. I don't think it's the best one in the series though (but then I haven't read many Magic books yet).
