4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent ending to a good series, August 10, 2000

By	F. T. Barrett "tasselhoff" (Colorado) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book is the culmination of a wonderful series. This may be the best trilogy since "The Dark Elf Trilogy." This book was definitely more action packed than the previous books but all those things that were pestering you finally are revealed, like who has been speaking to Jherek all these years and why, who Iakhovas is, and more. The Taleweaver's tale comes to an end in dramatic fasion, and I am glad that the ending is different than it was in the module because if it was the same then I would have known the ending and that would have spoiled the book.

I found the pace of the book more along the lines of the first, which I liked (the second book was to slow and little was accomplished). The battle scenes were detailed making them easily pictured in your mind.

The best thing aobut this book is the emotion. You feel the pride in Jherek when he regards his paladin friend and the sadness in his love for a young ships mage. Also handled quite well was Jherek's revival, taking down to his lowest possible point, he was revitalized in magnificent fasion. Truthfully and beyond a doubt this is one of the finest Forgotten Realms series ever. You will not regret reading these books.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Sea Devil's Eye, June 21, 2000

By	Damien Bosley (Orlando, Florida) - See all my reviews

This books was definetly a great end to a great trilogy. The characters in it were so passionate and real. The way Mel Odom developed all the characters througout the trilogy was great. I haven't read a great war book in awhile and this one definetly had it all. The end was a little toned down though, considering that it was supposed to be the big confrontation between antagonist and protagonist, but still it was a great ending. All in all I would highly recommend this book and the rest of the trilogy if your looking for great sea faring adventure!

4.0 out of 5 stars A decent ending to a great triology..., May 10, 2000

By	J. Jarrett (Cullman, AL USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

All four (one short story book) of the books in this series have been written very well. Congratulations to Mel. With out giving away too much the antagonist was very exciting; I was usually reading just to get to the points about him. Our Hero on the other hand seemed rather undeveloped during the first two novels. The third novel did slightly better. All in all a great book. I will most definitely buy anymore concerning Jherek.
