Wonderful and Engrossing Read,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Lion Throne (Chronicles of the Cheysuli - Omnibus Four) (Mass Market Paperback)
This series is one of my favorite. It takes you over and each character lives on in your mind, even after setting the book down. If you like first-rate fantasy with wonderful plot and characters, this is a "must read."

Great ending of the great cycle,
By Caylith (Poland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Lion Throne (Chronicles of the Cheysuli - Omnibus Four) (Mass Market Paperback)
Yup, I bought it, Yup, I red it...and I'm almost speechless!! Ms Roberson's Cheysuli cycle is great.And Lion Throne was a chance for me to read last 2 novels, because here in Poland only first 4 were available in bookstores.I bought The Lion Throne and Pride of Princess here in Amazon.com (too bad you haven't Daughter of The Lion anymore)The story of the Cheysuli and their way for the Prophecy of the Firstborn, ends the way I'couldn't even imagine.I was wandering how will the author joins heir to Homana throne and an Ihlini witch, but the way she did it was so unbelivable, that 3 days after ending the book I was still thinking about it:) All and all, I recommend it all fantasy (and shapechanging) fans:D P.S. Sorry for my poor English, but I'm still impressed by this novels:D

This review is from: The Lion Throne (Chronicles of the Cheysuli - Omnibus Four) (Mass Market Paperback)
I read Omnibus One to Omnibus Four within a two month period, and the books kept me enthralled during my train rides going to and from work. I found the story engaging, true to the nuances of human nature, true to the consequences of extraordinary circumstances (as far as fantasy goes, of course!), and realistically imperfect in everything else, yet it was ineffably a work filled with mysterious cultures, magnificent realms and sheer enchantment. I felt involvement with the characters: loving them; hating them; grieving for them; wishing them ill... It is true that when you finish Omnibus 2 you begin to see a pattern in the plot, but I thought this a necessary element in the shaping of true characters and events. The differences lie in the characters and the circumstances surrounding them after all. I found that Omnibus 1 ("Shapechangers" and "The Song of Homana"), Omnibus 3 ("Pride of Princes" and "Daughter of the Lion") and the first part of Omnibus 4 ("Flight of the Raven") are the best of the series. The rest of it could be called necessary to "complete the link". The last one, for me, served as an Epilogue, to tie up everything else, but it's still an interesting read. I'd like to give the entire series a 3.5, but the stars won't let me.
