At last Brust lets us meet the mysterious “Makers,” in effect the original gods of this world, and find out something about who they are and what they can do. Brust makes them convincingly alien and inscrutable, and the plot piles...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/45424390">more...</a>]]></body>

So who should turn up but Lady Teldra, the courtly servant of my old friend the Dragonlord Morrolan?<br/><br/>Teldra wants my help, because Morrolan and Aliera have disappeared, and according to Sethra Lavode, it looks like they may be in the hands of the Jenoine. Do I want to mess with them? The guys who made this place? And I thought I had problems before...<br/><br/>Oh well, what's a little cosmic battle with beings who control time and space?

    <body><![CDATA[Yes, this one was very nice again. I had mistakenly started reading <em>Dzur </em> before I got to this one and it was driving me mad not to know what had happened to Lady Teldra.

    <body><![CDATA[Great series.  Whole is greater than the sum of its parts I suspect; I should buy the whole thing and read them in sequence when I get the chance.  I love Vlad.  His irony, mostly, and refusal to admit to taking anything seriously.  I like reading the books just to spend time with him.  <br/><br/>...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/49217537">more...</a>]]></body>

    <![CDATA[Okay, so maybe I've been living in the woods too long, where you can't even get a decent cup of klava first thing in the morning. So who should turn up but Lady Teldra, the courtly servant of my old friend the Dragonlord Morrolan?Teldra wants my help, because Morrolan and Aliera have disappeared, and according to Sethra Lavode, it looks like they may be in the hands of the Jenoine. Do I want to mess with them? The guys who made this place? And I thought I had problems before....Oh well, what's a little cosmic battle with beings who control time and space? It's better than hunkering down in the woods without even so much as a drinkable cup of klava.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Not bad, but not as exciting or fun as the earlier books in the series. The thing I love about the series is the planning and execution, but there is no real planing in the plot. Most of the book is dialogue between Vlad and Lady Teldra. It's really an origin story for Vlad's Great Weapon.
