The first two books in this series are amazing! It has been years since I read these and so many scenes and events are still indelibly inscribed in my memory from these books. I should provide the caveat here that it HAS been years since I have read them, and Korynn, who is reading them now, is not overly thrilled. However, while being younger may have helped me to love them, it was such a magnificent reading experience that I choose to stand by those memories... This is not your tame, hackneyed retread of The Lord of the Rings, but a wildly original and deeply intelligent work of fantastic fiction. Unfortunately, as Wolf always seems to do, the later books are not nearly as good, although the third and fourth are worth a read once you are hooked, even if they aren't as satisfying.
