I found this to be the most addicting of the first few books in this series. The character and plot seems to progress effortlessly and keep the reader wanting to go farther. In fact, I stayed up far too late on night to finish this book.

The style of this series is now formed, the characters well developed, and it is simply fun reading now. There are good lessons and thoughtful insights here and there also, but overall it is simply fun reading.

While this book was by no stretch Stasheff's best novel, I thoroughly enjoyed it. It seems that Magnus is finally coming into his own, although he could certainly lighten up a bit. The only thing that I didn't like about the book is unfixable - it didn't include the other Gallowglass family members. To me the best part of the other books was the family interaction and that, of course, is missing from this one.

I usually enjoy reading Christopher Stasheff but this book was a big disapointment. It is kind of monotonous without a good plot or much action. I don't reccomend this book to anyone.
