Elbryn y Pony -cuya amistad de la infancia ha dado paso a una relación mucho más profunda- esperan con fervor que la ola de oscuridad se retire por fin de las tierras de Corona. Al fin y al cabo, el sabio y piadoso monje Avelyn Desbris sacrificó su vida para destruir al demonio Dáctilo. Pero si el mal se bate en retirada, ¿por qué las hordas de trasgos y de powris de gorras ensangrentadas siguen asolando las tierras civilizadas? Con la terrible magia de las gemas que Avelyn les legó, Pony y el guardabosques Elbryn plantan cara a la invasión de los trasgos, que odian a los humanos, y a otros monstruos malignos.

The second book in the Demon Wars Saga focuses much more on the dissension of the monks. The monks story arc is a bit more aggravating as it is filled with strife and very little resolution. There is a strong focus on the villain, who is a bit too typical of a villain. The book is definitely a second book in a trilogy, as it is mainly a stepping stone into the next book. Overall, the war with the demon is still interesting and I'm sure third book will be a better read.

I listened to the book via GraphicAudio, which had a better improvement on their sound. It is much more balanced and kept the excitement going. ( )

I had to start this book a second time because my copy grew legs and walked off. That or my house at it again, but I found it and have been entertained for days now.

We continue in the world of Corona following NightBird, Pony, and an elf. To hard to spell without the book in my hands.
On a whole different spectrum we follow the corruption of the church, and the desecration of the dogma. I would recommend that this become required reading for anyone aspiring to become a priest or any type of holy man. This was very enlightening, and drew very disturbing similarities to the Spanish inquisition. Similarities that I hope never come to pass again.

I wonder as to how long Salvatore planned this series? Extraordinary talent that makes me green with envy! Just Wow with the endings of both books!

That's all for now Pretties! Cheers and have a great week ahead! ( )

The 2nd book in Salvatore's Demon Apostle series. In these books, he departs from his original writing for the Forgotten Realms world and developed his own world and magic system. In this world, elves and humans are very reluctant allies, sometimes rivals, but both are threatened by goblins and evil humans. Magic is performed with the aid of magic mineral rocks, such as hematite. Each of the minerals performs a different type of magic, somewhat modified by the strength and creativity of the owner. I enjoyed these books as they allowed the author to be more creative ( )

One of the first fantasy books I ever read. I enjoy it now as an adult as much I did when I was a child. Salvatore is great at creating fast paced action and memorable characters. Still, I've never tried to find the last book in the trilogy, so that may be a mark against it. ( )
