Wonderful Breakaway from plot architypes
12 May 2000
Format:Mass Market Paperback
A stand-alone novel in the FR Harper series. I loved thedescriptions of the frozen environment; some of the best I've read inany novel (this coming from someone who lives in the snow). The book breaks away from conventional "good vs. evil", blurring the lines, showing both sides of the battle with intriguing characters. Don't expect a cliff-hanging plotline, but do expect a fresh look and new take on the way characters and the overall book is portrayed as compared ot other FR novels. My only complaint is that there hasn't been a sequel written (yet - knock on wood).
A great read!

I don't understand the negative reviews, did they read the same book I read???
Soldiers of Ice is gripping right from the front page! It sucks you in and takes you on a wild and fast ride in a story that you cannot put down. The characters are really well-developed, even the monsters are well crafted, which is a refreshing change for a Forgotten Realms book. No, this one won't win the Nobel prize for fiction any time soon, but it is a great read, and one of my favorite FR books ever! Obviously, I highly recommend it. Read it and see if you agree.

NOT THE BEST!

Format:Mass Market Paperback
Unfortunately Soldiers of Ice was a quite a disappointment! The title is a bit misleading if you are expecting epic battles/wars. There are encounters with ice mephits and elementals (one of each...) and gnolls, but the book lacks that extra something needed to push it over the top. Both the plot and the writing are average. Instead, I recommend other books from the Series such as Red Magic or Parched Sea to mention a few, all the while keeping in mind the "heavy artillery" Forgotten Realms novels that have been written by RA Salvatore, Elaine Cunningham, Ed Greenwood etc My advice, read the Soldiers of Ice only after you're done reading most of the other Forgotten Realms books and you are still in need of more Toril related material.
