Great adventure, multi-faceted characters, unique!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
I haven't read the rest of the series -- I picked this book up at random and read it, and now I'm dying to get the rest! The story's pretty darn unique, and the characters -- especially lusty, hot-blooded, death-machine Sh'kaira -- are awesome. This is not your average adventure story. I want to know how Megan and Sh'kaira met, how the rest of the family came together. I want to read the full account of Sova's adoption, and of Megan's son's birth and sale, and Megan's escape, and -- yeah. You get the idea! It's one of those "read it and you're hooked" books. I advise you to get a copy (of the whole series) immediately!
A great addition to the Fifth Millenium Series

I read this about six years ago and what stuck in my mind was the torment Megan was going through to find here lost son. She would do ANYTHING to get him back. I highly recommend this book to any readers of Fantasy.
Great addition to the Fifth Milennium series!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
Shadow's Son gives people who have read previous Fifth Milennium novels a long-awaited look at Megan and Shkai'ra's family--not their separate childhood families, but the family they have forged for themselves as adults. The character of Sova particularly appealed to me, probably because her "outsider's perspective" on Shkai'ra is refreshingly honest. Definitely worth a read for the populace at large, *highly* recommended to 5th Mil fans.
