HTML:Groundbreaking epic fantasy series in Mercedes Lackeyâ??s Valdemar universe â?¢ Lambda-Award winning novels with heartfelt high adventure and magic
Valdemarâ??the once-peaceful kingdom protected by the magic of its Herald-Magesâ??is now besieged on all fronts.

As with the rest of this series, the main character is put through the emotional mill in spades and it's a big emotional wallow. There is also a sequence when he is subjected to gratuitous brutality. Overall, not keen. ( )
I like the books Mercedes Lackey writes, she is good at creating a believable world and people to populate it. While her writing is not the strongest I do find it engaging ang and enjoyable. I like a series I can live inside of and her books are ones that have characters I feel invested in and a world I believe could exist. ( )
I could not put it down for long and will reread this trilogy again. There were several points that touched me more than I had expected. More than other books have.
This is a trilogy about Vanyel's life, his frustrations, personal & family growth, victories & sacrifices for something bigger than himself.
I liked I, hopefully you will too.
Will have to see if she wrote anything about Valdemar after Vanyel's death. ( )

Sweat ran down Herald Vanyel's back, and his ankle hurt a little - he hadn't twisted it, quite, when he'd slipped on the wooden floor of the salle back at the beginning of this bout, but it was still bothering him five exchanges later.

To this day, that gittern is grown into the tree it leaned against then, the goldenoak's roots entwined about its strings in a gentle embrace, and there are bright days, when the wind whispers through the trees, that the Forest of Sorrows seems the most inappropriate name possible.
