This book, selon moi is better than the first in the series. The plot--particularly Mathew's role in it-- thickens considerably, and some of the characters introduced in the first book play larger roles. Pukah, Sond and Asrial have their own plot line that involves solving the mystery of the missing immortals.
I love how this book (view spoiler) delves into the dark side. I've always been a fan of characters who are tempted by power and must resist but discover they...more

This is the second book in the "Rose Of the Prophet" trilogy.
A step in the right direction with the characters, while the 1st book was a bit slow with all the background story, you know have enough basis to really get into the story. This story flows much better between the mortals and immortals stories, and at the end they come together once again. The war of the Gods is raging and spilling over into the world of mortals, and the dynamics are becoming very interesting.

I've read this series so many times that I can't really keep the books straight. See my review of The Will of the Wanderer for a general review of the whole series. Love it.
This series is a lot of fun! It reads suspiciously like a chronicling of a D&D campaign...but the characters are enjoyable. These books feel shallower than the other Weiss/Hickman stories I've read -- I didn't get much philosophy or ethics out of Rose of the Prophet. But hey, I once heard that fantasy novels are for entertainment; if you want to send a message use Western Union.
