Kind of Duane's Door series (4 gods/goddesses, direct interference by the gods) thoroughly mixed with the LOTR (quest, take something somewhere uncertain and something uncertain will happen, but it must be done). I was crying for all of the last two-three chapters. Very real characters, with very real reasons for their choices - sometimes the wrong choices, and...how do I say this? When a wrong choice was made, it neither was a necessary wrong choice for the plot nor, apparently, spoiled the plan; it just happened. They made it through by luck and chance and stubborn determination. That's apparently her only book - blast! I'd have liked to read more by her. Though it was very hard to pick up another book after Eye of Night - it was so rich and powerful nothing else felt right. ( ) Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

From Pauline J. Alama comes a stirring fantasy tale of three vagabonds in a dying world and their terrifying quest into the heart of darkness... The Eye Of Night It is a magical world on the verge of collapse. In the North the Troubles rage. Cities and kings are being annihilated; the very earth is in upheaval, waking even the dead from their graves. All notions of time and space, of day and night, of seasonal change seem fractured beyond repair. But as the chaos moves slowly south, engulfing land after land, three unlikely heroes--an ex-priest, a battered serving girl, and an exquisitely beautiful, refined lady--journey bravely to the dying regions, their only weapon an enchanted stone of enigmatic power and ancient origin. Jereth, disillusioned with his faith in the Rising God and robbed of his family after a deadly shipwreck, struggles to find meaning in his blighted life, searching the devastated land without direction--until he meets two extraordinary women. Each has her own secrets to keep; both are on a quest to save the world. But they must first save themselves, conquering their demons and rousing their well-disguised strengths. Only then will it be revealed how three penniless, unarmed wanderers can light a darkening world. For one is a prophet, one is a fool, and one’s life is now in their hands.
