Luthiel's Song
review 1: Once again, Robert Marston Fanney has written a marvelously captivating novel. You are pulled into the second half of Luthiel's story from the first word. One feels as if they have become a guardian angel to Luthiel as you read/watch over her during the many adventures and heartaches. If given the opportunity, I would join Luthiel in her quest against the Vale of Mists and the evils it brings.The imagery, as in the first novel, is entrancing. The picture your mind draws brings you to a wonderful world full of both evil and good. You can easily create in your mind the world in which Luthiel lives.The ending of the novel is a complete cliff hanger. You are left at the edge of your seat craving to find out what happens next. One now has to patiently wait for the third chapter... more of Luthiel's life. Great work can not be rushed. Robert Marston Fanney does a brilliant job of depicting the life experiences of a young lady. He has written a novel to be loved by both females and males of young and old.I am growing impatient awaiting the sequel.
review 2: I feel a slight hesitation as I write this; I can almost see the rotten tomatoes coming towards my head. Let me begin by saying that Luthiel’s Song is a wonderful story. I really enjoyed “Dreams of the Ringed Vale” and started “War of Mists” without delay. The principals of Fanney’s story continue to develop and grow, but all of the secondary characters seem more and more meaningless as they multiply in number. I sense that Fanney has this unbelievably interesting fantasy world, complete and perfected in his mind, but what he doesn’t do, is bring the reader in with him. This is my own personal opinion, mind you, but I felt left out of the story. As the story progresses, more and more characters are introduced. So many, in fact, I had to continually backtrack to figure out who they were. At the same time the writer tried to make the reader feel emotionally connected with inconsequential characters and/or the loss of them. Because of this, I feel that the author lost a great deal of good “story” amidst the chaos of unimportant clutter. I wish I knew more about the villain. Aside from that, I did enjoy the story. The characters that had sufficient development, I thoroughly fell in love with. less
