Shadow of a Dark Queen (The Serpentwar Saga, Book 1)

An immensely enjoyable book with characters that are both fascinating and believable both human and not. The world built in this story feels immense. Feist has a way of moving the story along from one place to the other with fluidity and grace inspiring the imagination.
The book feels like it’s continually building the main characters of Eric, Roo and Miranda, as well as the other characters in the book, who are equally rich in their own right, as they navigate their way through each trial they face. My personal favourites are Calis and Nakor. I find their characters full of surprises and I hope their stories are developed more.
The story is geared towards a battle but does not overwhelm the book too much. It’s fascinating to read how all the different parts people play will eventually lead to a conclusion.
A beautifully written book with rich characters, world-building and a cleverly thought out plot. Packed with magic, creatures and action. A must for all fantasy fans. I look forward to reading the next book in the series.
