In a galaxy far away, Tempus spins on its` axis and good and evil are at war;isn`t that the way of any world ,real or imagined. The king quietly gathers a rag-tag team to fight the evil Lord Vlad and his army of demons,orcs, giants, dark elves and giant wolves. The team-a human woman,2 half-elves,a dwarf, a gnome,a wizard of unknown origin,an elven ranger and a young elf and his wife must find the Duaredheim Staff, a staff of supreme power before Lord Vlad finds it.
Erik O` Brien is a superb writer with extremely detailed characterization. The first 100 pages were confusing to me. I felt overwhelmed by the many characters introduced so quickly. After that, the story centers on "the good team" and the duel,of sorts, against "the bad team". The action is fast and thrilling in this page-turner fantasy. I hungrily anticipate reading the sequel ,"the Drums of Doom". If you liked "Lord of thr Rings", you`ll like "Kur`s Rage". Go out and grab a copy today!
