Treasure and Treason

Fantasy. Fiction. Romance. HTML:

An ancient power.

Hidden for millennia in a legendary city on an uninhabited continent, the Heart of Nidaar can harness the forces of nature itself. In the wrong hands, the artifact is a weapon that can command the power of the earth and seas to destroy all life. Just the type of power a sinister goblin brotherhood finds irresistible. In their hands, kingdoms will be forced to surrender to their rule.

A team of royals and rogues.

Chief mage (and nearly rehabilitated practitioner of black magic) Tamnais Nathrach is the perfect goblin duke to stop them. Along with elf pirate Phaelan Benares, these two have a roguish plan to sail to Aquas and snatch the Heart of Nidaar before it can fall into the wrong hands. After all, stealing hearts is what these two do best. Who cares if goblins and elves have been in a near constant state of war for centuries? This common enemy is enough motivation for some teamwork and a little professional competition.

The adventure of a lifetime.

Perhaps Tamnais and Phaelan have forgotten one small fact. Expeditions that sail to the continent of Aquas never return. It's a blighted wasteland filled with creatures from nightmare and Tamnais might have failed to mention that the Heart has guardians, an ancient race willing to use deadly force to keep themselves and the artifact hidden. Alliances are tested, courage is challenged, and nothing less than the future of all life in the Seven Kingdoms is at stake in the deadliestâ??and most competitiveâ??treasure hunt of all time… (altro)

Great addition to the Rains Benares World. I loved getting a closer look at Tam and Talon and Phaelan. Can't wait for the next one! ( )

Everything I missed by reading the second book first was found here. It really does help if you've read the previous series. It definitely is more of a setup book for more of the action in the second book. ( )

I have enjoyed earlier stories in this series very much. This one was far from the quality and fun of those. Not only did the author feel the need to repeat what had happened in the previous novels, she felt the need to repeat what the characters just learned in the previous paragraph! It struck me as if the author thinks her readers need everything spelled out-- at least twice, in excrutiating detail.
In addition to the book's many redundancies, this story is told from the point of view of Tam, a tertiary character in the other novels, who seems to have lost ninety percent of the personality that made him interesting. The series also lost its sense of fun. I can't think of a single moment of fun or funny.
Finally, the book is lacking its story. It has a begining and some travel. Then it ends. It does not conclude and doesn't have any kind of resolution.
I was very disappointed with this novel and I'm not sure I'll buy another. If you enjoyed the series, I suggest you spare yourself a huge let down. ( )
