Great storytelling! Had all the elements of science fiction and fantasy. Loved it!

Enjoyed all three books immensely. The reading was expressive and compelling. A joy to listen to. Well done!

Mediocre ending to a poorly written series.

This book almost felt like a relief. Not because it was written better or because it was more consistent in naming the gods. No. It was a relief because now I can move on to books that are pleasant to read.

Nice Conclusion to the Trilogy

Nice character progression and more swords in play. A lot of loose ends tied up. A very good series.

All is at it was

The story had an unpredictable ending but I would of love to have more information on how the swords were made. I read the First triad and it gave me a glimpse to this series. However I expected more depth from the book of swords and did not get it.

Now on to read the next series of the Lost swords and finish the Triads other books.

All in all, I enjoyed the adventure and how I seem to be looking down into the story as if I was there.

Really love it.

A+

Terrific end game to the Swords trilogy. If you have this book you must have enjoyed the first 2. Same great characters and action.
