This book carries the tag-line, "In a world of shifting realities, two warriors begin a deadly quest for truth."

OK. The two warriors are from the first book, (Tarquin/Quintar and Istar) - however, this book goes into more character development with other first book characters, so it's really a book with several warriors using weapons or birds or magic, etc.

The people are primative yet have advanced technology. It reminds me of the theory of what would happen to earth if we were GIVEN hi-tech info from an alien race. You need the time it takes to invent these things to use them properly - or at least use them to their potential.

Some chapters are very in-depth, some are vague. First you'll get a really good grip on events, and then you get to passages you'll have to read 2 or 3 times to understand what's going on. Some passages seem to be 'asides' FROM no one imparticular TO no on imparticular. It gets confusing and even irritating at times.

I got to the end and my first reaction was, "So, what the heck does that mean?"

The first book was enough to hook you and make you want to know what happens; the second was a disappointment because it left too much unanswered. I'm waiting for the third for answers.

Please let there be a third book. I can't leave the story like this.
