Summary: Best Knaak book in years
Comment: I have not found many page-turner books, but Richard A. Knaak has done a fantastic job with this work by leading the reader along with a good fantasy story...and just when things start to slow down, he throws in a twist, and element of curiosity, mystery, or surprise to keep the reader guessing what really is going on with the Kingdom of Shadow? This book relates more back to some of his earlier works like the Dutchman or The Janus Mask where the plot goes through some interesting twists. What you were sure you understood at one point is turned on its head 100 pages later, and then spun about even more later on.
Most of Knaak's most creative works have been set in his own realms of imagination (Dragonlance, or the Chicago-based novels like King of the Grey or Dutchman), but he has done an admirable job in incorporating various elements of the Diablo world (such as Necromancy spells) while spinning a wonderful tale.

Summary: The Worst of the Best
Comment: Kingdom of Shadow was an excellent book. It combined action with adventure. The only problem with it was that I had to compare it to Legacy of Blood and The Black Road while I was reading it. Every fan of Diablo needs to read this book. It delves deeply into the roles of the many types of people in the world of Diablo and also greatly reveals the tretchery of Diablo himself. While Legacy of Blood is the most graphic of the stories it contains an original plot that uses an element from the game (the concept of Bartuc), which somewhat left me disappointed because I like to figure things out. Mel Odom made The Black Road a completely different adventure than I could have ever thought was possible. He took the realm of Diablo and added in the most personal characters and the most involving story I have ever read. But in Kingdom of Shadow Knaak comes back with a new and original story. It is a romance with terror and action. A great read for all people. Read them all, you will be happy.
