Beyond Ragnarok

I thought this, as well as the other novels in the series, were VERY well written. I have to say that the romantic "scenes" were on the mushy side. I don't know that there is a really good literary solution for this, it was just the one area in the trilogy that got on my nerves a bit. I still highly recomend the series.

This trilogy holds itself against the original. The author builds on the characters she created in the first trilogy and takes them to levels of conflict that she could not have set up otherwise.Good and evil? Let's try shades of both...her characters this time are young...full of life and of themselves. They learn about violence, love, and the true evil that normal men of power can accomplish...on top of that, they are forced to deal with a supernatural evil of unprecedented levels.The badguy in this book will have you wanting to jump into the story, grab a sword, and take his head (sorry, reference to another good fantasy tale ;-) ).Don't start with this book and its trilogy...start with "Last of the Renshai."

I am a big fantasy fan but there are only two people i think have earned the right to be called real fantasy authers and mickey zucker riechert is on of them. This is a great book!!!

The book was excellent and I give it 6 stars. The characters had feeling and depth. I could not put it down!!! A must read. I cannot wait to buy the next book!

I have followed the Renshai books since I picked up The Last of The Renshai two years ago. I still think that they are among the coolest books that I have ever read. I would have to rank them up with Jordan, Goodkind, and Anthony. The chronicles are no different; great action, characters, and emotion. I highly suggest reading this great book and every other book Mickey has written. I eagerly await the release of the third chronicle paperback!!!
