Spelljammer--Space Fantasy

Compared to any of the other books situated in the Dungeons and Dragons universes, I have enjoyed the Spelljammer stories quite thoroughly. I recommend this book highly to anyone that likes Dragonlance, Forgotten Realms, Darksun, Greyhawk, or Planescape.

"Paranoia's the prize I have to pay to stay alive"

The Broken Sphere is the fifth book in the Cloakmaster Cycle series, which consists of six (6) books in total. Picking up from where The Radiant Dragon left off, the book continues to shed light on Teldin Moore and his ongoing quest to find out more about the magical cloak he carries a.k.a. "The Cloak of the First Pilot" and eventually be free of it. Teldin continues to change both physically and mentally; new haircut-new beard, he is even more cynical etc Ability-wise, he is further maturing, becoming more and more experienced and able as a fighter as well as in learning the secrets of the cloak and thus better able at controlling and handling its immense power. He is now able to detect magic, to cast the legends lore spell in regards to crystal spheres (!!!), and to read and understand books faster than it takes to get them off the shelves (literally). The book starts off very slowly and the first 50 pages are rather painful. After page 80 though, it picks up. The plot as a whole is excellent! The book is very well written so that the reader firmly believes that they are there with the characters. The feelings of anticipation grow as Teldin edges closer and closer to the Spelljammer. On the negative side, The Broken Sphere is not as good as Nigel Findley's Into Void. There is less action and much more (too much!) of Teldin thinking to himself about everything and anything over and over and over... Moreover, ENOUGH with the mole/spy thing, it's yet AGAIN the SAME story! It's gotten to the point that if there is no mole/saboteur in the next one, it will feel as if something is amiss... In addition, why did Teldin not keep Hectate??? Firstly, the bionoid was the best navigator Teldin ever had! Secondly, the chemistry/trust between the two was great (both went the extra mile)! Thirdly, Hectate was also a great warrior! Fourthly, the bionoid had stated that he would follow Teldin ANYWHERE! Lastly, The Radiant Dragon ended with the two of them deciding TOGETHER what the next course of action will be, yet when The Broken Sphere begins, Hectate is gone! In conclusion, Nigel Findley establishes a GREAT cliffhanger for The Ultimate Helm, the next and final book in the series.

Incredible end to a great series

Since they didn't have any reviews here, I thought you might appreciate hearing something about the book. It is an exciting finale, in the words of the summary:Teldin Moore's magic amulet allows him to "see" through the eyes of the great ship Slelljammer, across the wilds of space. Following clues from an ancient gnomish library and the vision he sees, he traces the mighty craft though the crystal spheres. He employs his magical cloak's powers and discovers his quarry's home, but Teldin's cloak -- and the possibility it could give him control over the Spelljammer - continues to draw enemies, often in the guise of friends. Will he survive long enough to face the final danger that awaits him at the point of the Spelljammer's origin - the Broken Sphere?
