If you like Lord of the Rings, you'll love Shadow Beasts, December 28, 2001
This review is from: Curse of the Shadow Beasts (Magelore Series) (Paperback)
This world could be part of Middle Earth that the hobbits never discovered. Elf, human, gnome and dwarf live in the same city, yet it is an abomination for attraction to grow and if a child is ever spawned with impure elven blood, it is drowned at birth. Arien, an elf mage never questioned the wisdom or necessity of this practice, then, an elfkin saves his life. Now, he must face truths, some from his own past and some from the world at large... thus, he leaves his scolarly life and embarks on a quest .... you won't regret reading this great story.

even non-fans of fantasy gonna love this book!, September 19, 2001
This review is from: Curse of the Shadow Beasts (Magelore Series) (Paperback)
Like several people who already reviewed this wonderful novel, I've know the author, Christine Morgan, by the fandom of the TV Series Gargoyles, and met her several times already, during the Gathering conventions. All that to say that I had high expectation about this book, and I wasn't disappointed! Poignant intrigues, attaching characters, and one of the dealiest sneakiest vilain I've ever known. and most of all non-human races that have more than one dimension, far from the stereotypes of the genre. I tell you guys, this book is a MUST READ! (like 99% of Christine's stories, anyway!)

SUPER!, September 15, 2000
This review is from: Curse of the Shadow Beasts (Magelore Series) (Paperback)
I have been a fan of Ms. Morgan's work for a long time and while all of it is awesome, this is one of the best of the best. The day I received it I read it right through. A must read for RPG fans or fans of Ms. Morgan - or both! =)
