5.0 out of 5 starsWhat an ending!
By A Customer on September 28, 2002
Format: Mass Market Paperback
I don't think I've cried over a book in years, that all changed when I picked up "Magic's Pawn" I believe I got the lump in the throat four times with that book!
I read the first two in days, but I hesitated on the third. I just didn't want this trilogy to end! Besides a friend told me bluntly: "If you cried over the first, the third will knock you flat."
But all of you who has read this series know the pull of it.
Gods! It was fantastic! Vanyel, Savil, the army that is their family have all grown so much since the begining (I did how ever miss Jerivis, he grew on me in Magic's Promise)
And some old favorites make a guest spot, The Hawkbrothers among them!
This was the first set of Lackey's books I've read so I didn't accept Stefen right off (I'm an old romantic and there's no one for Vanyel except Tylendel) but because of one thing or another (not telling your gonna have to read) I loved him by the middle of the book.
Vanyel is an enigma, and the character plays with the emotions so well. One second you understand why he's building walls, the next you want to beat him over the head and tell him to stop being such a jerk! (of course Yfandes will do that for you) but that's one of the reasons why I love him! In so many ways Vanyel is an unlikely hero, he tries to make his head drown out his heart, but he's ruled by his emotions, even if he *doesn't* want to listen to them, and that leads to confusion (which is his compainion as much as Yfandes) and then to doubt. Vanyel is rarely sure of himself, no matter how he sounds. He loses his temper, he does stupid things (often many in a row) He's human You just don't see that very much in Fantasy heroes.Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 starsHeart achingly beautiful!
By Niki on February 28, 2003
Format: Mass Market Paperback Verified Purchase
I love this book and my heart is still aching 3 hours after I finished it. I thought being as old as I am no book would be able to move me to so much tears least of all a fantasy. But I was wrong as my eyes just blurred with tears towards the last part of Magic Price. This book is invaluable. Not because of the magic or the style of writing because I have read better ones. It is Vanyel, his Life-bond and his Companion which makes Magic Price and the series itself so special and priceless. I will always love Vanyel and remember Vanyel for his struggles to find himself, his vulnerability, his sensitivity, his inherent goodness and his sacrifice for those he loves. The Last Herald-Mage Series will always be one of my favorites to be treasured always. It is definitely not only for young adults as some claim. It is for all of us with love in our hearts.

5.0 out of 5 starsBeautiful
By morgan.fey@juno.com on April 21, 1999
Format: Mass Market Paperback
I don't know exactly what it is about these books, but every time I read Magic's Price, I get this overwhelming urge to cry. I NEVER cry for books, 'cos I'm generally not the crying kind. The feeling of this book is bittersweet melancholy, but that doesn't totally explain my inclination to tears. As one might realize from reading all the other reviews concerning the Last Herald Mage trilogy, perhaps its greatest virtue is the amount of empathy and identification that the reader feels with its main character, Vanyel. He is just a really, really, incredibly great character. Long-suffering, honorable, HUMAN, filled with pain and loneliness, he is a perfectly perfect character.
I first discovered Lackey when I was eleven, or twelve, with the Arrows of the Queen series. I liked Talia and her story, but now, years later, I can't quite get into it quite the same way I did when I was younger. I first read this series right after Arrows, and still, today at nineteen, I enjoy Magic's Price with almost the same fervor and sighing sadness. I read it now with an eye to the things I didn't notice the first time around; the writing is occasionally awkward, sometimes lacking polish and panache, the humor's kinda corny, etc. But still, the force of the story, Vanyel's story, grabs me by the throat with the same power.
This is Lackey's greatest work, no question. Her other Valdemaran books pale in comparison, her Heraldic trilogies wilt. I whole-heartedly recommend this book, which is the best one of the series. But begin with Pawn, which is one long dirge on alienation, loneliness and suffering (great for all adolescent-kind!), and Promise, which is a sort of a lull in which we see the grown up Vanyel in action and have an adventure. Go forth and read these books and get hooked.

5.0 out of 5 starsFlawed Vanyel proves out
By Barb Caffrey VINE VOICE on June 14, 2003
Format: Mass Market Paperback
"Magic's Price" is a great book.
Don't let anyone fool you regarding Ms. Lackey's writing competence; anyone who can weave so many subplots together, while showing flawed, real people making mistake-laden choices and having to live with the consequences, is a good writer.
I think Ms. Lackey is an outstanding writer.
I had a very long review written; not sure if it went anywhere. I really don't want to write the same review again, so let me try and sum up.
Other folks have gone over the plot; I'd just like to say these things:
Vanyel's biggest strength is his humanity. The fact he is afraid to love Stefan after so many years of being alone is very realistic. Also, the fact that Stefan had to try again and again and again to get Vanyel to open up to him was _also_ realistic.
Anyone throwing this book to the side because it features a gay couple is really missing out. It's a fantastic, highly emotional book that deals with complex issues in a realistic fashion.
I highly disagree with anyone who thinks that because Vanyel has a lot of inner monologue and can't seem to make up his mind very quickly, he's not a good character. He's a great character; yes, he's flawed, but so what? It makes him more believable overall.
Not only that, I find it more than a bit sexist to say that Ms. Lackey's character shouldn't be so flawed, when George R.R. Martin is currently being revered for setting up a bunch of totally flawed "heroes" and truly revolting "villains" with semi-hearts-of-gold. Why is it OK for Martin but not for Ms. Lackey?
Makes no sense to me.
Anyway, buy this book; it's one of the best books Ms.Read more ›
