Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
The fourth volume of the authors' Death Gate Cycle, begun with Dragon Wing , moves to Chelestra, Realm of Sea, last of the four worlds created by the Sartan during the Sundering in their battle against the Patryns. The inhabitants of this world--dwarves, elves and humans--are in grave danger: the seasun, source of light and life to the seamoons on which they dwell, is moving away. When the vessels in which they were to escape are destroyed by malignant, highly intelligent dragon-snakes, three children, scions of the ruling families, undergo adventures and encounter Haplo, the Patryn escaped from imprisonment in the Labyrinth who has been traveling the worlds of the Death's Gate fomenting discord. Meanwhile, Alfred, the last remaining Sartan, also translated to the water world, is reunited with others of his kind, including Samah, who initiated the Sundering and has been in suspended animation since. The stage for escalated conflict is set. The worlds created by Weis and Hickman become more attractively complex with each book of the series. The deepening characterizations of Haplo and Alfred, with the underlying mysteries surrounding both, provide the necessary glue binding this opus, which promises three more volumes.

From AudioFile
Using the ancient heresy that the Almighty created the world and then departed, the authors create a universe rent asunder. Depth is lost in the abridgment, but it works nonetheless. Dotrice specializes in wise old men and Scandinavian dwarfs, well-suited to Serpent Image. His reading is expert in cadence, hastening through excitement and lolling during moments of peace. Occasional chimes and minor sound effects mesh with the narrative; audio clarity is superb. The insatiable fantasy crowd will be well pleased. D.W.
