Commentary In Favor Of Books The Fire's Stone

THIEF, SWORDSMAN, AND WIZARDESS AARON. Clan Heir, he has fled his people when his beloved was slain by his own father's command, abandoning his training, duty and beliefs to become a thief. A master of his trade, he now dared the odds in Ischia, city of the volcano, where the price of being caught was death. DARVISH. Prince of Ischia, third son of a king who had no intention of giving up his throne. The prince was a drunkard, a lover, and a wastrel, yet was gifted with sword skills and with the ability to charm all around him. But not even his charm could free him from the political marriage now being planned. CHANDRA. Born a princess, she had chosen to become a Wizard of the Nine, that rarest of beings, able to master all the forms that sorcery could take. Now, promised as Darvish's bride, she undertook a desperate journey to Ischia to convince him they must not wed. Aaron, Darvish, Chandra—three strangers whose fates were about to become interwined. For someone had stolen The Stone, the magical talisman which stood between Ischia and the volcano's wrath. And unless the three could learn to work together on a quest to find the Stone, Ischia would drown in a sea of lava.

Assessment Epithetical Books The Fire's Stone

A thief in mourning, a drunkard prince, and a wizard facing an arranged marriage are drawn together in an unlikely quest. This is transparent, tropey hurt/comfort concerned with self-actualization and found family, set in a relatively forgettable second world fantasy. I wish it didn't offer quite so much resolution--it's too neat, too complete, which undermines the troubles faced by the cast, although I imagine it's rewarding catharsis for some readers. It also feels bizarrely unedited (I read

This was really an extraordinary fantasy novel. It takes all the basics: a warrior prince, a wizard princess, and a well-born thief and has them go on a quest for a stolen magical object that must be retrieved otherwise it will doom an entire city. Each of the characters has their quirks, their families, their personal tragedies, and their abilities. But I have rarely read a book that has such well-written fantasy characters that realistically struggle with alcoholic dependency, fear of failure



Was going to continuing listening to Phoenix Rising but ended up listening to an old favorite while to/from work.I love the balance between Aaron, Chandra and Darvish. They are perfect together in this quest to find themselves as well as save Darvish's country. It is still believable and nice to read how the relationship of the three strengthens through the trip and eventually heals all of them. I think this is like my fifth time (or more) to read since I first read this decades ago, but it

This book is such a hidden gem, and it's become one of my go-to comfort reads.The story is a pretty typical find the magical artifact and save the day type quest. Which isnt a bad thing, and the book doesnt pretend to be anything more than it is. It's honestly really refreshing. "Short and simple" can be hard to come by in the fantasy genre. The worldbuilding isn't all that unique, but it manages to break the mold just enough to stand out - it takes place in a Middle Eastern-inspired society

I enjoyed this book very much. The world in which it's set is described in enough detail to feel real without being overwhelmed with unimportant filler. The characters are complex and extremely likable; they have real flaws and real strengths. The plot was exciting and the writing was gripping.I do have a few complaints. The edition I read was poorly proofread; perhaps later editions were improved in this respect, but various typos kept pulling me out of the story. Second, the action seemed

Its been ages since I first read this, but Ive been meaning to get round to rereading it for ages, and Im glad I finally did. The world itself isnt particularly distinctive: wandering peoples, oppressive clans, magic which requires detachment from the world, royalty and court intrigue but the characters are what make it shine for me. Chandra, Aaron and Darvish each have their faults, but together they make up a surprisingly strong team, compensating for each others faults and not just easily or
