5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible Fantasy 17 Aug 2002
By S. Patel - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Those familiar with Planescape will note that the book is not consistent with the setting--to which I say, so what?

This book should be judged on its ability to tell a story. And this story, spanning whole dimensions, heavens and hells, is beautifully detailed and well crafted.

The ability of any author to weave together not worlds but REALITIES is a testament to good writing. Anyone who likes books that force you to think about things like the nature of divinity, evil/good, reality, and other aspects of philosophy will enjoy this book, as well as those that like a beautifully and well told romance.

As a final note, let me say that the way the romance was handled was really well done. The female characters aren't sex objects even when sexually portrayed, and instead the sexual and romantic elements take you back to when you were an adolescent struggling with the issues the characters are.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Planes shake with the raging of the Blood War 30 Mar 2000
By Milton - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
In this plane-shaking finale' to the Blood Wars trilogy, J. Robert King writes an excellent story. What started off as a planar romp by two prime-worlders turns into an all out crisis which involves mortals and deities alike. As the pendulum of power swings from the lawful baatezu to the chaotic tanar'ri and back, Aereas tries to find meaning for himself and his family amidst the backdrop of the everpresent Blood War. J. Robert King proves that he is an incredibly capable writer in the Planescape genre by writing a thouroughly comprehensible conclusion to a story whose setting is in a place that is thouroughly incomprehensible. Though not as suspenseful as "The Abyssal Warriors"(volume two of the Blood Wars trilogy), it definitely is a worthwhile read if you have begun the series. At the end of this book you will read an ending that will surely rock the foundations of the planes!

5.0 out of 5 stars THE BLOOD WAR AWAITS!!! 7 Aug 2004
By L Gontzes - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Definitely a great fantasy epic and one of my personal favorites, The Blood Wars Trilogy-Blood Hostages, Abyssal Warriors, and Planar Powers, brings to life the story of Aereas and Nina, two cousins, and their adventures in the "multiverse" that is the World of Planescape. The books are so incredibly well written that the reader feels that they have been transported to another universe and are actually present among the characters, seeing what they see, feeling what they feel, sensing what they sense.

The author has done a FANTASTIC job of both acquiring vast knowledge relevant to the Planes as well as presenting this material efficiently and successfully! His solid grasp of factual detail makes him very capable of providing the necessary background needed to carry out the very difficult task of writing Planescape novels, which is something often missing from the work of many Fantasy authors.

JR King 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 in authors Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman's Dragonlance Chronicles and Legends trilogies as well as RA Salvatore's Icewind Dale and Dark Elf Trilogies. Love, fiends, bravery, magic, swordfights and battles of epic proportion are all about. A great trilogy indeed and a "must read" along with Pages of Pain, sadly, the only other novel written in the Planescape setting.
