Product Description

Two hundred years after the Raintree clan defeated and abandoned them on a small Caribbean Island, the Ansara wizards are rising again to take on their bitterest foes. Despite their extraordinary powers and supernatural origin, the Raintree have largely blended into the modern world. They are bankers, cops, husbands, wives and lovers in the society of humankind. But now, from Nevada to North Carolina, the rejoined battle will measure the endurance of their people. It will test their loyalties and relationships. And it will force upon them all new lives they could barely have imagined before.

2.0 out of 5 stars I wish I knew how to say "disappointed" in another language!, June 26, 2007
By J. Lesley (Midsouth, United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
While reading the reviews for this book the word disappointed shows up so often I wish I knew how to say it in another language just to add some comic relief.

I'm sure you know by now that this book Raintree: Inferno is the first book in a trilogy about a clan of good wizards (the Raintree) and a clan of evil wizards (the Ansara). This book was used to set up the background history and information necessary to carry the story forward and to tell the tale. I have read all three books and I will tell you that this is by far the weakest link in the chain. I expected more, much more, from Linda Howard.

I am a very slow reader but it only took me four hours to read this book. That was not meant as a compliment! In the front of each book there is a note from the author for the reader. Linda Howard's note is even the shortest note. If it really took these three authors three years to bring this trilogy about, then I am shocked. Book two is really quite good and three is better than a lot of books I've read and they deserve to be reviewed elsewhere. This one just needs to be forgotten. I don't understand why the publishers didn't issue these three in a package deal. They actually could have been presented in one volume as a related anthology. It would probably have cost about the same as three individual books.

This is not a stand-alone book. It makes no sense unless you read the other two books because this one just ends.....with absolutely no resolution to anything. Dante Raintree tells Lorna Clay to "Stay here." and drives off into the sunset without telling her where he is going or when he will be back. He has only known her a week and they have been through all kinds of horrible disasters but she is supposed to just sit down in his house and await his return. She, of course, doesn't. What in the world was to stop him taking her with him on his private jet? That is the last we see of them until the ending of book three. I felt like Little Nell had been tied to the railroad tracks and the train was coming. Help! This book needs help!! The problem is, it's waaaay too late.

2.0 out of 5 stars I don't know what's happened., May 30, 2007
I have been a Linda Howard fan for a long time, but, with the way she has been writing lately, very dark and heavy story lines, I have settled for rereading some of her older works if I need a Linda Howard fix. I tried this book on a whim and have to tell you, to my dismay I found myself skimming through the book. I have never felt the need to skim a Linda Howard novel before. I have seen a trend in many former romance writers moving toward darker, action packed, death filled novels. I have to tell you if I want that I can watch the news. I read fiction to relax and escape the headlines for a few hours. I guess that some people must like these heavier story lines, because more and more authors are turning to them. I have to tell you I am running out of people who write stories I like to read. I might have to start making up my own. At least then I know I will like the story.

4.0 out of 5 stars An interesting read, April 27, 2007
I thought this book was good, not great, but a solid 'B' for me. The mind control thing bothered me a bit but I could accept LH's explanations abt the reason behind it. I knew going in that this was part 1 of a trilogy, and that this was a short book. So I didn't expect this to be a 'complete' novel. Perhaps that's why I was able to enjoy this book a lot more than others who reviewed here. The excerpts for books 2 and 3 were very interesting too, and I'm definitely curious to read how the story ends.
