First, let me say, once I started this book, I couldn't stop. I read the better part of it in a single day, and the last twenty pages while messaging my reactions to a friend. If you've read book #1 and #2, The Wind from Miilark is a no-brainer. But you know what? Even if you haven't read #1 and #2, I think this book alone would draw you in, forcing you to work backward as well as forward.In this book, we rejoin John Deskata, last seen at the conclusion of The Sable City (book #1). When his bid to regain control of his ancestral house goes bad, he embarks on a rite of vengeance. Along the way, new characters are encountered, as well as old friends like Tilda, Zeb, and the wizard Phin. Breathtaking action also follows, including an encounter with a pair of Miilarkian golems than would give the Terminator a run for his money. In the end, the author unveils a battle so well-written, I raced through the pages, seeing the action unfold in cinematic style. And the conclusion? Pushing me straight into book #4.Enjoy.
