A really fun read, especially for fans of the Dragonlance world. This book takes place almost entirely in the south pole region of Icereach, though there is a brief interlude in Silvanesti. The heroes are a young Arktos warrior woman and her friends, an elf Mariner and an ogre prince. Dragonlance style, the ogres are quite civilized, though still warlike.

I enjoy Nile's writing. He does a good job of pitting the various factions and tribes against each other, creating distinct personalities and cultures. Well done and nice to read a Dragonlance story again. For those who've read his Forgotten Realms novels, this might feel a bit similar, but not too bad. ( )

A good read. I like the way Niles handles the Ogre leader by not making him a buffoon or unrealistic. Also nice to read a book about parts of Krynn we are not familiar with. ( )
