- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Light reading. Modern (Vietnam era soldier) man transplanted to a fantasy realm helps the deposed prince try and recover his realm.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This book has a familiar theme of individuals from 'our' world who end up in a fantasy world, in the middle of a struggle between good and evil. The characters in this book are excellently done, the heroes are all larger than life, and the action and plot are excellent. Reacher, Hightower, Gil and Springbuck are some of my all time favorite characters.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5I actually enjoyed the physical book when I read it. I can't stand the reader for the audiobook. He is almost as bad as autotune. Mechanical, statcato at random times and he has absolutely no expression. I'm really, really sorry I didn't listen to a sample before I put it in my library.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/53.5 stars. A fairly typical fantasy world, but it has some interesting elements not done in others. Well written & good. The sequel is very good, too.
There aren't a lot of characters or weird names cluttering up the prose. The magic is very magical, but has an internal logic & the idea of inter-dimensional travel, as hackneyed as it is, came across well.
Daley is similar to Alan Dean Foster, IMO. Good reading for a rainy day; interesting, amusing & just generally fun. I never expect great works of art from him, but am always satisfied with the fare.
