Review: At the Gates of Darkness

At the Gates of Darkness by Raymond E. Feist

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I found this book to be very good, but it's also very much a continuation of the first book in the Demonwar Sage and I wouldn't ever recommend anyone to read this book before having read Rides a Dread Legion. There is also several references to the previous series The Darkwar Saga.

Midkemia is once more threatened by evil and the Conclave of Shadows hurries to find the point of attack in time to avert the threat.



The Riftwar books has grown into a regular franchise with more than twenty books and it's starting to show as the story gets more and more artificial with levels of existence and planet jumping.

However At the Gates of Darkness is also gently hinting at that the end might be within sight as some prophecies is drawing to a close.

I really think that the franchise would benefit from the Chaoswar saga being the last saga.
