Summary: Totally insane, I love it!
Comment: The new idea of using the first person as a narrator doesn't seem great, but it really is when you realize he's on the evil side! For once the good guys get practically crushed, it almost feels good, and it was almost sad to see Mystra and Kel.. well I won't say more 'cause I won't spoil, but they formed one of my favorite couple. Well, even I recognize it was a great idea. Malik is hilarious in his descriptions of "Oghma the thieving, unknowning god" and "Mystra the Harlot". I never read the Parched Sea, but I believe I will because Ruha intrigued me. Good work Troy, much better than the Twilight Giants trilogy (which wasn't bad, just a lil stale). Mask and Cyric the Mad rule.

Summary: Against the norm writing style produces a delightful read.
Comment: Well, when I first opened the book and saw the first person style, I put down the book for many weeks. How dare this sequal not follow like the others? Taking a course in college that is all about reading different styles from different cultures, I opened my horizon to reading this book. Soon enough I was caught skipping class to finish the book! Of course the book supported Cyric, for at the end it becomes clear to me that this is the holy book Cyric instructs Malik to write for Cyric's worshipers. The parts of the toiling god's was indeed most fun to read. I was a little mad about what happened to Mystra, Kelemvor, and Adon, but what the heck, good cannot always crush evil. My favorite character has always been Maask. This was a real novel, not some good over evil crap that plagues most novels. It makes way hopefully for more stories to come.

Summary: A must read
Comment: This book is the most amazing fantasy book I have ever read. I loved the first three books of the Avatar series, 4 was good. But this, it takes the cake without question.
The intrgue created and the complexity of the trial allows you to see who the great powers really are. You can see at times, they are quite human and at times blind to anything that is not them.
I couldn't put this down and the last 20 pages made my heart jump out of my chest. I didn't want this one to end. That is for sure.
