I am a sucker for good science fiction, so when this book was suggested to me by a friend, I thought I would give it a try.  I hate to say it, but...... my friend was right, this book was really good.You have your somewhat boilerplate cast of characters:  Marcus, the great warrior with amnesia, who is trying to figure out who he is, and where he fits in this world;  Kenric, the elf king who won't let anything get in the way of his rise to power;  Thorel, the dwarf that always has the right thing at heart.  All of the characters are really well fleshed out throughout, and you are shown how not even the best of heroes are completely void of evil.This book has two or three big ideas that would be enough to write an entire book about, but these writers manage to balance out everything really well. Nothing really seems overly long, and nothing really seems edited down and cut short.If you are a fantasy or sci-fi fan, I would highly recommend picking up this book.
