This book and the other two books ofthe mages of garillon were excelent. It is horrible they stop printing them. They are the only three books I didn't fall asleep on in the first capter. The other two begining books of this trilogy are The Burning Sone and The Gaunlet of Malice, which I both highly recommend. The book was actually exciting. Sure there is a lot of big words but you can still get the overall meaning if you just skip over them. Come on, can't someone reprint it. It is alot better then all those poorly written, boring and pointless books that companies print a million of.
Rousing conclusion to a great adventure series
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
It's a darn shame this book isn't available any more - with any luck, word will spread and the publisher will reprint the series. I read the three of them when they first came out, and Spiral of Fire was a wonderful end to a series full of adventure and memorable characters. Without resorting to purple prose, Harris nevertheless invokes genuine emotion in the reader with her loving portrayal of her central characters. The battles between good and near-overpowering evil are exciting and different, and Harris keeps coming up with new and different ways to approach old problems. The author has written a number of books now with Katherine Kurtz, but the Mages of Garillon, of which Spiral of Fire is the last, really sing in her own voice. This is a rousing good read, a great romp of an adventure and a beautifully rounded end to a much-missed series. Time to reprint!
