More About the Author
Product Description
Book Description
The final book in Robert Newcomb's magnificent epic fantasy trilogy 'The Chronicles of Blood and Stone'
Product Description
For three centuries Eutracia was a land of peace and plenty, until the return of the Coven of Sorceresses and the subsequent rise and fall of the Gates of Dawn. And now a new menace stalks the land. A race of fiendish slavers are plundering its people, taking them away across the seemingly impassable Sea of Whispers to goodness-alone-knows what horrific fate. It falls to the king in hiding, Tristan, his sister Shailiha and the wizards Wigg and Faegan to begin unraveling the mystery, but to do so the Scrolls of the Ancients must be found and their secret language deciphered. It is a quest that will take this fellowship deep into the Chambers of Retribution, across the tainted Sea of Whispers to the sacred, shrouded Isle of Sanctuary. As they unravel secrets, confront creatures beyond their imagining and discover the fate of the vanished people of Eutracia, the true identity of the enemy is revealed: a master of the Craft of Magic whose powers, ambitions and capacity for cruelty and evil threatens everything the fellowship holds dear...

Secrets and more secrets,
By Jill 333 Robinson (ARNSIDE) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Scrolls Of The Ancients (Paperback)
I really enjoyed the first two books in this series and was not dissapointed by the third. Newcomb carries on the development of the main characters whilst introducing new ones to the ever suffering band of heros. More secrets are revealed by Wigg making Tristans situation ever more desperate. Perhaps Wigg should just come clean and reveal ALL his secrets in one go instead of drip feeding them in moments of crisis - but then we wouldn't have a story would we! Looking forward to the next one.

A good follow on!,

This review is from: The Scrolls Of The Ancients (Chronicles of Blood & Stone 3) (Hardcover)
Nice follow on to an already great series. Robert is slowly expanding his world and adding wonderfull background to an already colourfull canvas. He seems to be keeping all the little threads together sucessfully and weaving them into great stories. Looking forward to the next book!

Disappointing,
By
This review is from: The Scrolls Of The Ancients (Chronicles of Blood & Stone 3) (Hardcover)
Having read both previous volumes of the Chronicles of Blood and Stone - the Fifth Sorceress & the Gates of Dawn - and enjoyed them immensely, I had been eagerly awaiting the third instalment to the series. Sadly, though, I was disappointed. I found it possibly the dullest fantasy novel I have ever read. The only thing going for it is that the story is actually ok, just so long as you can keep reading without becoming too bored.Hopefully Mr. Newcomb will provide a more entertaining story next time.
