REVIEW:

Available for the first time as a compendium, Matthew’s Shadowmage trilogy is a set of tales that’s sheer value for money. It has great prose, wonderful characters and when backed with an imaginative world as well as solid script it makes for a series that really will hit that fantasy spot.

Finally add to this great understanding of pace and character interaction and the reader really is in for a treat. Great stuff all in and a magical offering. Top stuff.
