Format:Taschenbuch
Salvatore continues his story of the gallant Cadderly and the beautiful Danica. This book takes the fight to Castle Trinity. A great feeling sweeps through you as you read the book, as the group lays waste to the evil minions of Castle Trinity, you find yourself wanting to cheer out for Cadderly and crew to "Kick their arses." This book is classic Salvatore, absorbing and exciting, you never want to put it down even though it is 5:19 in the morning and you have to be to work in 11 minutes.
I found one small problem with this book. Cadderly suddenly gains this superior confidence and believes what he says is right and everyone else is wrong, what ever happened to the Cadderly who weighed his options well. The expanations did not sit well with me but they by no means distracted from the book. The highlight: Ivan on his Magic Dragon Ride. If you pass this up you are missing out on the vengence book of the series. Enjoy!

I am a huge fan of all of R.A. Salvatore's series, and the Clerics Quintet is one of my favorites. This fourth book in the series is no let down for any avid readers of the first three. The plot is exciting, engaging, and leaves you on the edge of your seat. The characters, as always, are beautifuly portrayed and very deep. I would defenately recomend this book to anyone who is a Salvatore fan, or who would like a taste of him for the first time. Enjoy!

Surprisingly - Disappointing
5. Dezember 2000
Format:Taschenbuch
I should first say that I grew up on Salvatore's books and have always considered him as a master of fantasy writing... until I read this one. Having enjoyed Canticle, been ok with In Sylvan Shadows, and absolutely loved the concept of the Ghearufu in Night Masks - The Fallen Fortress, as title suggests, fell flat on its face.
Suddenly, Cadderly's steady growth as a character ground to a flat halt. In Fallen Fortress, he is omniscient, all-powerful, etc, etc. He can do anything; nothing affects him. The rendition of his emotional turmoil in this book is flat and hard to sympathize with. This makes for very boring reading. Maturity of characters? I don't think so - everyone here is predictable and does not grow.
Plotwise, there is nothing interesting - there is nothing to match the invention of Cadderly's yo-yo or crossbow in the earlier books, or the originality of the evil artifact mentioned above. Instead, potential plotlines are disappointingly dashed aside. Eg. I was intrigued when a certain villain "came back" - that would have made perfect material for advancing the plot. But instead, the book kills him off unceremoniously, without exploiting his potental (to the plot) - what a waste.

Oo!
24. Oktober 2004
Format:Taschenbuch
Considering that this is my first Cleric Quintet book that I have read (let alone the first experience with R.A. Salvatore's work), I found this little gem entertaining. The Fallen Fortress falls in line with the genre of RPG novels, but Mr. Salvatore's flair for comic relief (a green bearded dwarf named "Pikel") has forced me to put the book down a few times - from laughing.
I was slightly disappointed by the length of the book, only because the literature was so enjoyable, I wanted more! But hey, there's a lot more where that came from. R.A. Salvatore is reknown for his numerous quality works.
4 Stars. I'd probably give it 5 if was a wee bit longer.

Cadderly is overpowered: worst in the series
11. August 2002
Format:Taschenbuch
This, the fourth book, in Salvatore's "Cleric's Quintet," is probably the worst novel in the five book series. There were a few promising ideas that could have been developed more but alas, no such luck. This book is meant to be the climax of the story, which resolves around the plans of Castle Trinity to conquer part of the Realms.
Cadderly, the lead character, becomes more and more powerful with each passing page. His development seems to have been arrested and I found him less interesting than in the previous books. In "Canticle" (which I've reviewed), Cadderly was inexperienced and he depended on his friends to help him. He also had several internal struggles that gave him some depth. However, here, Cadderly seems to be able to overcome any obstacle with little trouble.
The story development leaves something to be desired as well. Salvatore brings back one of the interesting villains from a previous book ("Nightmasks") and then dispatches him without so much as the villain facing off against Cadderly. Other reviewers have mentioned this and I have to find myself agreeing with them. Cadderly's incredible and frequent use of magic becomes something of deus ex machina. There are supposed to be limits on what magic (i.e. power) can accomplish and it seems something of the balance was lost here. It is a pitfall that every fantasy author must always attempt to steer clear off.
There is one development in this book that hints at what will happen to the Edificant Library (a bastion of priests and good gods) in the following novel. I don't want to say anymore on that note for fear of spoiling the plot.
Please refer to my review of all the other novels in this series.
