Book Of Shadows

by James Killus

William, the wizard, seeks vengeance for his father's death Nara, the gypsy, seeks the future in her painted cards Britar, the thief, seeks adventure and profit. An unlikely trio, they are all that stand in the way of the Demon Quecora and his quest for the long-lost Chaos Harp. If Quecora finds the Harp and can replace its missing string, he will be a demon no longer-he will be a god. And the world's long winter will begin.

I am 99.9% certain I read this book in early high school, but before I was tracking my reading. I've been searching for it via the internet for 20+ years now and this is the first time a cover stood out to me. Here's hoping I can get it through interlibrary loan!

[Lonnie Veal · Rating 5 out of 5]

A nice lite fantasy read with the usual staunch band of Heros coming together to save the world from an over-arching supernatural evil. If you've read enough Fantasy, then the plot-line will have no surprises, but what will please you will be the landscape that the writer draws you thru as you follow the heros on their quest to destroy the Chaos Harp. Unlike a lot of generic Fantasy stories of this sort, this oneis NOT a 'Coming of Age' drama, so the focus is not on the lead hero learning the various adolescent lessons, so it's a pleasant read for an adult who wants something lite for a rainy Saturday afternoon
