Review: The Swordsman by Mel KeeganNote: this review has been "rescued" from Rainbow Reviews which, after three marvellous years online, is closing, pending a from-scratch revamp in which the old reviews will be lost. We want to thank JM Snyder for a fantastic service, and we're so sorry to see the site go. BOOK BLURB: When his life is almost lost, he contracts a personal guard, the mysterious Jack, which brings his own history into an already tumultuous atmosphere. Will their friendship be enough to save Sebastian and Rhondia, or will it mean the downfall of both of their lives? BOOK REVIEW: This book is a wonderful read! One is able to associate with all the protagonists, and even some of the antagonists in this rich, colorful tale of love, adventure, danger and sorrow. I really liked the development of the characters, and their personalities are perfectly described! The addition of the interesting Marguerite is wonderful, and it adds an extra dimension of interaction which only serves to expand an already complex and intricate milieu. This book is easy to read, and the scenes and chapters flow into each other seamlessly. This book is wonderfully captivating: a MUST read for all fans of fantasy! |
