Book Overview
Prince Dar of the Westlands calls the new fortress of Zakh Gral a dagger laid against our throat. It was built by the Horsekin, ancient enemies of his people. To destroy the threat, the elven prince has called upon his dwarven and human allies. Their leaders know that if the Westlands fall, their own throats will feel the dagger next. Joining them are two powerful dragons, who have their own bitter reasons to hate the Horsekin. But the fanatical Horsekin have a powerful ally as well, a new goddess. Alshandra's priestesses have announced that She has given Prince Dar's lands to the Horsekin-and that his people must be utterly destroyed.

Extremely spellbinding
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
All of these books in this series (and I have read them all) are absolutely spellbinding. You are on the edge of your seat waiting for the next episode. Well written and extremely exciting.
It gladdens my heart

I've loved Katherine Kerr's Deverrey universe for many years, and I was particularly heartened with what she began in this latest series. The second book can often be the weakest in a trilogy, but this one manages to avoid all the traps. In fact, it's better than The Gold Falcon, in part because Kerr includes a long past-life flashback that really illuminates the current story. I've always liked how Kerr's characters have to work out their wyrd over time... and how the decisions they make in this lifetime affect the ones to follow. If you haven't read the series before, don't try to start with this one. But if you've read even the first trilogy, you'll want to get into this Silver Wyrm collection.
One of the Best Authors around

I waited breathlessly for Katherine Kerr to write this book. I read it doing everything, cooking, laying in bed, waiting in the car...it was well worth it. I am now waiting breathlessly for the conclusion to find out what happened to the other characters who were NOT mentioned in this book. There are a few things she needs to put to bed to finish the series. Then I will read it over and over again and again.
The Silver Wyrm
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This is an excellent continuation of the series. Ms. Kerr has created a truly unique world with believeable problems and solutions, an excellent story-line and engaging characters. Her attention to detail and character development make these books a joy to read.
This won't disappoint
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
Although I enjoyed Gold Falcon, I was disappointed at its lack of a past life section. Spirit Stone suffers no such lack, and indeed fills in a missing section most satisfactorily. Without wishing to give anything away, this book also expands the action to include the perspective of two unanticipated characters, and arrives at its planned destination with many engrossing detours. Some may gripe at the relative lack of Neb and Branna in this book, but I found it heartening that they don't simply suddenly turn into super magicians over night and solve all the problems, and their story is charmingly told. Can't wait for the final volume in this saga.
