5.0 out of 5 stars An enchanting fairy tale..., June 10, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Shining Falcon (Paperback)
In a magical Russian world full of rusalka, leshyi, boyars and magic, Finist, the magician-prince of Kirtesk has a few problems on his hands--or often, talons. Oh, just the usual: a sorcerous, seductive cousin who's out for his throne, politics, magic and, of course, True Love.

I loved the Russian setting and the use of Russian folk-tales to augment the excellent plot. Both characters and plot are developed thoroughly. If Russian folk-lore appeals to you, also try Mercedes Lackey's Firebird.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, March 18, 2003
A Kid's Review
This review is from: The Shining Falcon (Paperback)
This book is like a fairy-tale. When I first got it, I wasn't in the least bit interested in it. But, being bored, I opened it and read the first page. Four and half hours later, I closed the book, finished. I could not put it down for one second.

4.0 out of 5 stars Russian-based fantasy, June 5, 2010
This review is from: The Shining Falcon (Paperback)
A lovely fast read based on Russian fairy tales-- I wish there were more of them! I found the characters engaging, especially Maria, although I wish there'd been a bit more on her sister's fate. All in all, definitely worth reading.
