4.0 out of 5 stars Gripping sequel to Stormwarden!, 28 April 2001
By jon.boyer@virgin.net (London, England) - See all my reviews
Ivainson Jaric, heir to the Cycle of Fire, has recovered the Keys to Elrinfaer and completed the first part of the quest that will free him from his enforced servitude to Anskiere the Stormwarden. Now, in this sequel, he must sail the world of Keithland from end to end in a search for a method to keep the keys safe from the Demon compact that has pledged to destroy mankind.

Excellent. A worthy sequel to Stormwarden which lets the character of Jaric develop beyond the meek, frightened boy that we met in the first book, and brings to the fire another major character - Corley, most trusted captain of the Kielmark, Prince of Pirates.

Strangely, most fantasy novels seem to involve long stretches of riding from one place to another. This is a tradition that Janny Wurts cheerfully ignores, having her characters spend most of their time sailing about. Indeed, Jaric spends at least as much of his time battling the ocean as he does demons, which I found very refreshing.

The only warning I have for those about to read this book is to make sure that you have a copy of Shadowfane (the final book in the series) handy, as The Keeper of the Keys does end on a cliffhanger note!

4.0 out of 5 stars The story continues..., 22 May 2009
By P. van Midden "paul" (scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Unable to renounce the task set upon him by Anskiere, Jaric must keep the Keys of Elrinfaer safe, for if they fall into enemy hands the Mharg-demons will be released and Keithland will be destroyed. His heritage bequethes him with a huge potential for power, but Jaric will do anything to avoid the Cycle of Fire - the mastery of which drove his father mad - while still searching for a way to save Keithland. But time is running out and the demons are coming for him...
An excellent instalment, one that keeps the pace going with admirable skill and will keep you glued to the pages.
