When Raymond Feist''s enormous novel was published; critics called it ''the best new fantasy concept in years''; and Feist has refined and explored that concept over a dozen novels. His ''concept'' was to bring together two (and later; more) whole; intricately realised fantasy worlds. Midkemia is a Tolkienian realm; a European- Medieval series of kingdoms in which magic is prominent; and where men share the earth with dwarves and elves. Feist''s genius was inventing another sword and sorcery realm based more closely on eastern models; the Empire of Tsuranuanni; as vast as Ancient China; as formalised and devoted to the arts of war as a samurai Japan. A magical rift in time-space brings these two worlds clashing together; and the young boy Pug and his soldier friend Tomas are thrown into the ensuing maelstrom of invasion and epic battle; before embarking on a more fundamental magical journey Silverthorn (Riftwar Saga 2) The second volume in Raymond E.
