If you like reading epic fantasy series by David Eddings or Terry Brooks or Elizabeth Moon, or similar authors you're going to like the Enchantment's Reach series. The storyline is engaging, including elements from the thriller, mystery, and speculative fiction genres. Also, the characters are believable--with Leth doing a lot of prodigal son bewilderment, "Huh?" (typical of this genre and done quite well)--and the different quests of the each character are easy to follow. While some fantasy series become torturous in later volumes, this fourth installment continues at an intriguing gallop. I love the "proper speech" employed by the characters, along with the wondrously magical names of the characters. Of course, that's why I LOVE fantasy... and this is a truly GOOD series to get into! A plus if the whole spirituality and metaphysics aspects, which is a significant part of some fantasy series, but not all. All in all a pretty darn good read!
