Product Description

Product Description

The sorcerer Nash, grievously wounded by Robert Douglas when he wielded the Word of Destruction, destroyed the evil Malachi and razed Elita to the ground, has spent years rebuilding his strength and increasing the unholy Bond that binds the usurper King Selar to him. But times are changing: Selar plans to spread his iron rule even further, and Robert can no longer ignore the dual threat of Nash and Selar.

5.0 out of 5 stars A brilliant series, 21 Aug 2001
By A Customer
After reading the first two in this series, I was a bit worried that this book wouldn't get to the same levels - but boy, it certainly did! There's this lurking sense of fate, and the sheer desperate honesty of people trying to fight something that's so much bigger than them. There's the hero, Robert, and Jenn the woman he doesn't dare to love - and they fight so hard, until they're faced with something they never planned for.

I really like the way Kate Jacoby writes. There's this complex story based on complex people and a situation involved enough to almost be real. This is no fairy tale, and though it would qualify as classic fantasy, there are no monsters and goblins and certainly no talking trees. Instead, there's this sorcery that Robert and his friends have, and there are people who want to destroy them because of it. There are a lot of very adult themes in these books; prejudice, alienation, patriotism and some interesting questions about faith and religion.

But no matter the parts - pulled together, they make one compelling book, and I can't wait for the next to come out.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best book yet, 29 Nov 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Black Eagle Rising: The Third Book of Elita (Paperback)
I admit, I'd been waiting for this one, and had it on order - but was nervous of actually reading it in case it didn't match my expectations. I can say I was delighted with the reality. This book successfully marries together all the themes travelling through this series, while driving the story forward into areas that are unknown and frightening for the characters. Robert Douglas is finally forced to fight for what he believes in, giving us a battle scene where we are at ground zero. As the story unfolds, you can't help but be involved with the lives of Jenn, Finnlay and Robert and even of the tyrannical king Selar and the evil one they need to destroy, Nash. Once again, Jacoby managed to catch me up in the tale, to the point where I couldn't put the book down. The colours, characters and dilemmas are wholly real. By the end of this book, I felt completely drained, and once more looking forward to the next part in the series.
