From Publishers Weekly

After destroying the vicious mercenary Raven and partially avenging his people wiped out in 2003's Talon of the Hawk, Tal Hawkins, last of the Orosini, sets his sights on the person who ordered the massacre, Kaspar, Duke of Olasko, in bestseller Feist's latest stirring fantasy. But to get close enough to Kaspar to exact his revenge, he must first win the duke's confidence—and accomplishing that may cost Tal his soul. Devoted fans will welcome the author's focus on Roldem and the Eastern Kingdoms, lands that barely figure in earlier books set in Midkemia. The unstable political landscape of the Eastern Kingdoms provides fertile ground for intrigues the like of which have not been seen in the Kingdom of the Isles. Despite his internal conflicts, Tal, an archetypal swashbuckling hero who's unbeatable with a sword, a brilliant tactician and handsome enough to make the ladies swoon, ranks among the least interesting of the characters who populate this part of Midkemia. Far more complex are the supporting cast, chief among them Petro Amafi, a former assassin and Tal's retainer; Quint Havrevulen, Kaspar's Special Captain who took part in the raid on the Orosini; and Kaspar himself—all of whom assume unusual depth as the plot progresses. The novel's relentless pace and explosive climactic battle will ensure another crowd-pleaser for Feist to add to his already impressive resume.

The second Tal Hawkins novel (after Talon of the Silver Hawk [BKL Ja 1&15 03]) expands the saga in Feist's usual deft fashion. Tal is now high up among what might be called the agents of the Conclave of Shadows and assigned to the duke of Olasko, his mortal enemy for destroying his family and people. To be effective, Tal must further disguise himself to enter the duke's service and there ferret out his secrets and find his weak points. Readers who remember how quickly Tal rose in Talon of the Silver Hawk will stop complaining that he hasn't earned the pleasures and privileges he then enjoyed once they get far into this book. Olasko's manners and morals would make the Waffen SS blanch, and they go totally against Tal's principles. Eventually, he rebels, betrays himself, is cast into the Fortress of Despair to die, and manages to escape in another sweating ordeal leading to a not-unexpected cliffhanger ending. The well-balanced pair of protagonists make this a particularly solid achievement for Feist. Roland Green
