Summary: An absolutely wonderful read. Couldn't put it down!
Comment: Having now read this book at least 3-4 times, I can clearly say that I enjoy it more each successive time I read it. Ms. Moon has created in Paksenarrion, a charactor who is completely believable, full of wonder and fears we can all certainly relate to. She develops both persona, relationships and environs to a degree few authors ever truly master, engaging the reader fully in the story. She has a gift for mixing rational reality with myth and fantasy which I found most entertaining, while rarely having to suspend my ability to disbelieve. I definitely recommend the 3 volume book. It travels better, is in a large bound format, and you don't have to worry about juggling three books, or about having forgotten the next one when you finish the last volume. You certainly won't want to stop reading.

Summary: I love Paks and You will too!
Comment: I just got done reading one of the best epic fantasies I've read! Like the medieval ministrels Moon tells us a tale of great deeds, tragedies and truimphs of a unforgettable heroine, Paksenarrion, or Paks to her friends as you will soon be as you read her story. You will follow Paks as she decides to defy her father and not marry a pigfarmer and follow her dream to become a great warrior.You watch her as she joins a mercenary company of the leadership of the noble Duke Phelan and see the world.And what is Paks world you might ask? Paks'world is place with it's own set of myths and legends,beauty, great evil and greater good.You will watch Paks as she grows from a starry-eyes young private to a seasoned veteran in scenes of battles and wars.Moon's description of life of a medieval fantasy mercenary so realistic you would swear she was one herself.You will also see bit by bit Paks true destiny which is to become a Paladin knight in the service of Gird.Another thing that makes her endearing is that Moon makes Paks a real person.She is no unstoppable Xena clone but a real flesh and blood person with her own fears which she must conquer to reach her great destiny.Moon's world-building skills are quite impressive as you see Paks' world through her eyes.You will watch as our heroine battle great evil like followers of the sinister gods like Achrya the spinner of webs and Liart the master of Torments.The book is one of the most deeply spirtual fantasies I've ever read because there are scenes where Paks is tortured by her enemies and only her faith of her god and Gird are her only weapons.Finally you will watch as Paks fulfills her destiny by restoring a king to his kingdom and help defeat the forces of evil.I implore Ms. Moon to write another Paks novel because I want to read more of her adventures and see more of her beautiful and unforgettable world through her eyes!
