3.0 out of 5 stars A good book; needs to be read in context of the series., 1 April 1999
By A Customer
This book, being the fifth in a series of seven, has the unlucky duty of acting as a "bridge". As such, it starts a little slow and never quite gets up to speed. The book also comes on the heels of a tough act to follow, Serpent Mage, volume four in the series, which is an outstanding book. Although much of 'The Hand of Chaos' is made up of "filler" material, there are some redeeming qualities. Hugh the Hand's character is revisited and developed, which in my opinion makes the book. Haplo's low-profile in the book, as well as the absence of Alfred the Sartan, leave the burden on Hugh. 'The Hand of Chaos' is a good book but it does not quite match up to the level of first four books in the series.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book, great development of characters, 28 Jun 1999
By A Customer
I was very pleased with this book. I had a hard time following it at first, because it was the first book in the series that I read, but the Hand of Chaos quickly draws the reader in with it's colorful description of characters and landscape. After reading this book, I was very interested in getting the rest of the series. And after reading the rest of the series(in order, this time), I feel that Hand of Chaos answers questions, develops characters nicely, and still leaves enough suspense at the end to leave me eager to read more.

3.0 out of 5 stars Death Gate - Fantasy for the masses, 11 Feb 1999
By A Customer
I must say that reading Death Gate is a really pleasant experience, even though i would like to categorize the series as 'fantasy bouquet novels' (dunno if you american folks have bouquet, but hey, you know what i mean, right) Apart from that: it's only suitable the fantasy-minded! Beware the last book, by the way: it isn't all that...
