Very solid effort for Williams. Great character development in a vividly described, and dangerous, landscape. If anyone can create elves/faeries better ( and more realistically) than Williams, I can't wait to read them. Skurn (the foul fowl) continues to be my favorite character with the twins coming in a close second.It's somewhat easy to see why this is a bit of a bastard child for Williams. In some ways, I think it's much better than Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn. A lot of that has to do with Williams being a more mature storyteller at this point in his career.

The third book of the Shadowmarch series is the Tad Williams I fell in love with when I read Memory, Sorrow and Thorn. The pace has now picked up completely, and things are happening everywhere. Characters that were only annoying in the first two books are now compelling and interesting. Who would have thought that I'd ever enjoy reading about a disgusting, talking raven? We still have all the same story viewpoints. Briony in Syan, Barrick's voyage through the Shadowlands, Ferras Vansen and
Shadowrise smoothly picks up the action following the events that concluded Shadowplay. Princess Briony has revealed her true identity to the important players at the court in the Kingdom of Syan. Prince Barrick is still journeying in the Shadowlands burdened with the objective of taking Lady Porqupine's mirror to the blind King of Qul-na-qar. King Olin is still a prisoner of the Autarch of Xis whose force is planning to descend on Southmarch. Daikonas Vo still holds Qinnitan as a prisoner with
