Product Description

Product Description
Kaster Leckery, estranged from his brother-in-law, the Dragon Lord Valraven Palindrake, and increasingly bitter about the Magravandian princes who constantly scheme and plot to take the throne of the empire, finally tips over the edge and, determined to die, runs into the mountain battle zone. He comes across a dying old man who seizes him and spits something into his face - and suddenly Khaster is no longer himself: the dying man spat his own destiny into him and now Khaster is Taropat, a Breeland mage, determined to ensure the "child of destiny" foretold by the mages would arise and overthrow the empire. But that child has been found and killed, so Taropat, believing that such people can be made, not just born, chooses Shan, orphaned by the Magravandian army, to turn into his warrior-mage hero. Together, and accompanied by a motley group, all with secrets and each with his or her own reason for overthrowing Magravandias, they must face the trial of the Seven Lakes if they are to retrieve the Crown of the true king and vanquish the empire.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent and compelling read, 2 Sep 2000
By A Customer
Crown of Silence is the second book in Storm Constantine's latest trilogy.It is just as good as the first book (Sea Dragon Air).It shows us how Khaster Leckery has evolved into the form of Taropat,a Breeland mage and takes into his home a young boy called Shan.Taropat trains Shan and hopes that he will be able to bring down the Magravadian empire along with Valraven Palindrake .Shan,Taropat,Merlan Leckery and Khaster's old flame are sent on a quest for the crown of silence.Each having to undertake tasks at each of the seven lakes.You feel like you are on the quest with them,you feel the emotions they all go through while on the journey,their doubts,their hopes and dreams.I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good fantasy book, and i look forward to the final part.

1.0 out of 5 stars Total disappointment, 10 Aug 2000
By barbarac@skynow.co.uk (Barnsley, Great Britain) - See all my reviews
I adored Sea Dragon Heir and bought this the minute it was available, Big Mistake! I cannot beleive it is by the same Author, it bears no resemblance to the first, I found the characters one dimentional, and what story line there was, was totally unbeleivable. I shall not be dashing to the net or anywhere else to buy the sequel
