Book Description

January 2000 Dominions of Irth (Book 3)

The shadows of an exiled magic threaten a goddess' dream of light.

Darkness lurks at the heart of a city rebuilt from the ashes--as a weak-minded ruler and his renegade witch wife hoard technological trinkets and revel in a sinister sorcery.

Evil has launched yet another assault on Irth and every sentient thing trembles in fear.

Across a vast gulf of galaxies, the dark reaches to enfold the Earth itself--where skulking in the heights of Manhattan, an ancient magician seeks to starve off death by leeching years from the heart of his followers' blood. But the sorcerer's reckless quest for eternal youth has spawned catastrophe. For his spells have opened the gate to elsewhere--encouraging invasion...and the end of everything.

4.0 out of 5 stars A neat conclusion, September 17, 2007

Alessar (Ann Arbor, MI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Octoberland (Dominions of Irth) (Mass Market Paperback)
My expectations for this book were rather low, based on the other reviews and my feeling that the writing quality slipped at the end of book two. However, I was pleasantly surprised by this book. This volume was somewhat less epic than the previous two and basically split between two plotlines, one on Irth and one on Earth. However, this neatly tied up all the hanging character threads from the previous books and brought the story to a solid and unambiguous conclusion. The author didn't really have any new conceptual themes to introduce in this book and it read a little lighter for that. I still feel the whole series just reiterates themes from his other book The Last Legends of Earth (not written under the Adam Lee psuedonym). If you have read the other books in this trilogy, the ending is worth it. However, this is clearly a "wrap-up" book and cannot stand on its own.
