The quest to find a friend whose life hangs by a thread leads James and Jiron back into the heart of the Empire. The impetus behind the hunt is not as it would seem however. For the life of their friend is but a lure used to draw James to the appointed place at the appointed time.
James is ultimately maneuvered to face the power behind the Empire, a dark being whose orchestration of peoples and powers has brought the world to the brink of annihilation. He discovers that he, too, has been manipulated in furthering the dark plans of this sinister being.
Can James defeat a being that has walked this world for over a millennia? Or will he face defeat and the destruction of all that he has come to hold dear?

A brilliant story about a boy getting caught in a phantastic adventure, excellent!
Format:Taschenbuch
Battle's over, the world is fine...or is it?
They learn that Jiron's friend Tinok is in trouble. While they search for him, they learn that something momentous is develooping in the Empire. More to the point, the priesthood fo Dmon-Li is up to no good.
Most of the people from the earlier books makes an appearance here. Ol' One Eye, Perrilin, even Igor shows up.
Man what a book. And I have to give the author credit for not dragging out the ending. When I came to the last chapter, I felt for sure that there had to be another hundred pages just to wrap things up. But the author ended the series on a high note, answered most of the unanswered questions and left you with the feeling that the series was over. Don't yo hate the never ending series?? I do.
Here's some of my questions that I had. Don't worry, there won't be any spoilers.
1. How did Scar and Potbelly get out of the Empire?
2. What happened to Tinok? Spent the whole book looking for him but he's not mentioned in the last chapter?? yes he was rescued alive, but that's all we know.
3. Cassie. Would have liked to know about that.
4. Were any of Scar and Potbelly's stories ture??
What I'd like to see in the future:
1. A series of books detailing Scar and Potbelly's adventures. I'm sure they're a bunch of lies, but would think they would be interesting.
2. The fate of the Empire. At the end of this book there's a serious power void that could be filled by someone maybe??
A great series that I'm surprised hasn't been picked up by a traditional publisher. Man, you guys are missing a sure bet here. With a little editing, it could rival Jordan's(especially the last books of WOT)

The End
23. Februar 2007
Format:Taschenbuch
And it is an end too. There's no cliff hanger at the end, no feeling of 'So when's the next book out'. Pratt actually ended the series. It had gone on for seven books, I had begun to think that he was going to be like other authors and keep it going, and going, and going with no end in sight. But he didn't.
The largest of the series, it's almost 100 pages longer than any of the others. Pratt wrapped up most of the questions I still had going through my mind after the sixth book. Perrilin, Korgan, and many others make an appearance.
Korgan. The mastermind behind the fall of the City of Light, an evil man who works for the Empire. Pratt did a masterful job of tying up this particular loose end.
Everything seems to come into play here. I almost expected to see Ellinwyrd from Cardri at some point. Rest assured, he doesn't make an appearance.
Miko discovers his destiny, when it happened I realized I should have known it was coming.
The incident at the Wallowing Swine really disturbed me let me tell you. Can't say much more or it'll ruin the fun.
There are several battles and the Priesthood of Dmon-Li plays a major part here. Also, the Hand of Asran, a militant sect of an otherwise peaceful deity aids James through to the end. They're druids, but with attitude. Magic is by far more integral to the action in this book than in any other, though there are still sword battles.
Scar and Potbelly. That storytelling pair that we first met in the second book and have all grown to love, are here throughout. They are quite a duo. They always have a story about something ready to go, usually too far fetched to be believable. Other than James, they were my favorite characters. I think they're supposed to be the comedy relief.
The conclusion of the Morcyth Saga is all one could hope for. James fulfills the reason he was brought to this world. When I turned that last page, I gave out with a sigh and realized I had just read one of the best works I've ever had the privilege to read. That's why I wrote reviews for all seven books. These were the first I had ever done.
True, there are syntax errors and spelling mistakes here and there. But the story is such that after awhile you don't even think about them any more. I have his next book Shepherd's Quest on order, I dearly hope it is just as good or even better.

I cried! It was so good!
20. Dezember 2006
Format:Taschenbuch
What a grand finale to an action packed series. I will miss the characters very much and look forward to rereading the books, slower, and catching more of the details. I read it fast because I was always anxious to know what was going to happen. I love the ending, I love the books, I recommend this series to all. Diane A. Goins

Overall Series
10. Juli 2011
Format:Kindle Edition|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
I liked this series. Yes, I saw the inconsistencies in the present and past tense. I saw some their when it should have been there, and the like. But the pace and overall theme of the books kept me coming back for more. Like every book I've ever read that I liked, I want to know what happened to the characters next. However, this series wrapped up with all the T's crossed and the I's dotted.
If you can set aside your propensity to pick a book apart (I have to admit in the first book I viciously attacked the writing) then the story will make this a worthwhile purchase for you. I bought them all!
