Five whole stars!
I was disappointed when I finished The Trail of Bohu and discovered that the tale was left wide open. For some fans, the wait for book four was 30+ years. Lucky for me, it was 30+ days.
This book is only available through Lulu.com. I had my reservations, they were proven unfounded. Lulu makes a nice paperback. Thick glossy cover and thick good quality paper within. Very satisfied with this paperback.

Rarely is the final book of a series the best one but Book 4 of Charles Saunders Imaro is just that. Incredible Afro-centric sword & sorcery from one of the genre’s late masters, who sadly died in obscurity:

Nachdem Fans gefühlte Jahrhunderte mit einem Cliffhanger am Ende von The Trail of Bohu, dem dritten Teil der Imaro-Reihe, leben mussten, kommt hier der kataklysmische letzte Teil im Selbstverlag. Eine Schande, dass originelle Fantasy wie diese keinen Verlag findet, während sich die Verlagswelt um den ganzen derivativen, stinklangweiligen High-Fantasy-Rotz prügelt. Aber das ist leider oft das Schicksal guter Literatur.
