Amazon.co.uk
The story begins with a riches-to-rags upset for Kaspar, former Duke of Olasko, who is now punished for his villainy in a previous volume by magical teleportation to a remote, bleak desert full of hostile nomads. By strength, cunning and a little luck, he just barely survives ordeals that range from mayhem and imprisonment to near-death from heat and thirst.
For a supposed bad guy, Kaspar seems likeable enough as he resourcefully makes his way across an unknown continent. In fact he quickly becomes a reformed character, realizing in repeated flashbacks that his former magician adviser had paralysed his conscience while leading him into naughty ways. The stage seems set for interesting conflict if this ex-Duke can cross the sea and return home.
But then Kaspar wanders into another story, joining a desperate band of men who are under magical compulsion to transport a strange relic towards some uncertain destination. The thing resembles a sealed suit of armour, but is clearly much more. It constantly attracts death and disaster. After one particularly gruelling attack on the party, the "armour" rises and walks.
In unexpected interviews with two of Midkemia's gods, Kaspar learns the nature of his burden and the grave menace to the world which it represents. His homecoming turns out differently from anything he could have imagined, with unexpected good food, forgiveness and violence. The foreshadowed surprise ending promises major complications in books to come.
Despite all these bodings of doom, Exile's Return is a pleasant, unambitious, feelgood fantasy by an author who knows exactly how to please his fans. Ideal train-journey reading.--David Langford -- Dieser Text bezieht sich auf eine andere Ausgabe: Gebundene Ausgabe .
Kurzbeschreibung
Saved by a mage's intervention from certain death, Kaspar, the evil Duke of Olasko, is lord no more -- reduced to an exile's existence and forced to wander the harshest realms of the world he once enslaved.
Merciless deserts, forbidding mountains, and vast oceans now separate the once powerful despot from his former seat of power -- his dark dreams of vengeance overwhelmed by the daily struggle for survival. But there is a larger drama that will entangle the broken dictator. An evil devastating and deadly seeks entrance to the land -- the mystical tool of a dark empire hungry for conquest and destruction -- and Kaspar has inadvertently discovered the key. Suddenly, Midkemia's last hope is a disgraced and exiled duke whose history is written in blood, and who now must wield his sword as her champion . . . if he so chooses..

Kundenrezensionen
Es ergibt sich eine neue Bedrohung aus dem Reich der Magie und es gibt neue Erklärungen zu den Rift- und Serpentwar-Büchern. Natürlich begegnen einem auch wieder Protagonisten aus den anderen Büchern.
Insgesamt routiniert geschrieben, liest sich der Roman rasch weg und unterhält auch gut. Aber er reißt einen doch nicht so mit wie der erste Teil oder gar die Riftwar-Saga, die für mich immer noch unerreichbar bleibt...
Gelesen habe ich einen UK-Import.
After having read "King of Foxes" I was anxiously looking forward to finally holding "Exile's Return" in my hands. The title is indeed very promising to the ones, who know the plot of book two. And it is fully keeping the promises made and a great deal more.
I just could not stop reading, the action is fast and breathtaking, the tension increasing permanently. This plot is even more epic, than the one of the "Serpent War" saga. I read this book through in a couple of hours and it leaves me painfully longing to lay hands and eyes on Feist's next novel, which, unfortunatly, will not be finished before next fall. What a pity!
Die Geschichte von Kaspar, den ehemaligen Herzog von Olasko, der nach Novindus... Lesen Sie weiter...
