5.0 out of 5 stars My Favorite, November 22, 2003

By	Celticgal68 "Celticgal68" (Allen, TX United States) - See all my reviews

I've read all of the "Warlock" series, as well as the "Wizard" series (Warlock's son, Magnus) and "Wizard in Rhyme series) and this is by far, my favorite of them all! It's extremely well written! It's touching and sensitive, without being sappy; yet full of adventure and the quick, dry wit fans have come to expect from Stasheff. I would have given it more than five stars if there had been the option.

5.0 out of 5 stars Stasheff in High Style, December 16, 1999

By	Cheryl Gagnon (Bandon, Oregon) - See all my reviews

Quicksilver's knight is a reader's delight. Well crafted from beginning to end, it draws together all the elements of the universe the author has created for the Gallowglass clan, including an encore performance by our favorite villainess, Diane Finister, whose everchanging appearance has managed to confuse the family so far, and whose determined malevolance certainly keeps a plot moving. Quicksilver is a terriffic character, "cut from whole cloth" so to speak, as Stasheff manages to not only make her a very real person, but manages to enlist us in her cause. Even a novice in Granmarye can follow the storyline, and as usual, the fast paced action is a tremendous aid in suspending our disbelief. Thumbs up for another Stasheff success!

5.0 out of 5 stars I thought that this book was wonderful., July 14, 1998

Geoffery Gallowglass is bored of every day things. He wants something exciting to happen. He sure got what he asked for. He is stuck between turning a beautiful bandit captin in and letting her live on her own. He then meets a stunning witch, and has to decide between the two. Some choice, eh?
