Ken Hood is actually Dave Duncan writing under a pseudonym (I believe at the time he was writing faster than his publisher was willing to release books). So if you like Dave Duncan you'll have a pretty good idea what to expect here - an enjoyable albeit relatively lightweight fantasy set in an imaginative world. Good for those times when you just want a light read without having to think too much.

I have read many different types of books and this is one of the best I have read. It kept my interest from beginning to end. I could not wait to see what was going to happen next. It was very hard to put down once I started reading. I really enjoyed this book.
