4.0 out of 5 stars Book 2 - where's book 3?, October 18, 2000

This review is from: Wintermind (Solitude Trilogy) (Hardcover)

This is a very interesting continuation of the story started by these authors in 'masters of solitude'. At the end of this book you have the main characters going looking for the 'missing' character of the first book.

Unfortunatley, I've never been able to find out if book 3 was ever written - so while you have 2 very good books here - there's no real conclusion - very frustrating. Authors should NOT be allowed to start a series and not finish it! - especially when it is published as a 'trilogy'.

5.0 out of 5 stars A worthy successor to The Masters of Solitude, April 23, 2000

This review is from: Wintermind (Solitude Trilogy) (Hardcover)

An excellent book, continuing the story of Arin and Shalane after the battle of Dannyline. Goes into the complexities of Coven and City minds, and completely immerses the reader. *Very* hard to put down.

To the authors, my compliments on the great stories, and please write more! Along with The Masters of Solitude, this is the best sci fi / fantasy I've read in a long time.

4.0 out of 5 stars An intriguing theme..., May 10, 2006

A great book- even without a great story.
The humankind evolved into two separate societies- The City, almost immortals with a compulsion for using technology, and The Covens, based on earth magic and developers of group telepathy.
The plot takes place after a mingling of the two societies, when a few of the masters of the covens have come to live in the city.
A young "goddess"- the term for a master telepath - is trying hard to reach her daughter's heart- but only on her own terms. Her husband, also a master, can't hold on to their bond and ultimately will lose her to madness.
I can tell you something: never in the last 10 years did I stay awake all night afraid of shadows, as happened when I finished this book... There are some pages that will scare you a lot- if you are like me - that is, if you fear madness...
Absolutely fantastic. I longed for the thrill :) and I got it from an unexpected source :).
If only there was a third book as promised... Didn't find it anywhere...
