Rating:  - LOVE HER BOOKS
I am a truly a sucker giggle. I paid the 30 some dollars for this book and didn't regret it. I would probably have paid more lol. I loaned the series to my friend who read it and passed it around to her doctor and family. They are all hooked and now in the same position as I am...awaiting book 5. There is one catch with books like these you don't really ever want them to end and yet you can't wait to discover what comes next.
And why does it seem so many terrrific fantasy authors are in Australia ... Read More
Rating:  - No good if you seek closure
This book rounds out the story no doubt, but is overall dissapointing. Carmody gets far too bogged down in the details of guild meetings to focus on a story with clear action. (I don't mean fight scenes either, I mean any story progression that would at least be interesting). After coming so far with the first three we are left hanging with a book overlong and unjustified in it's length. Moreover, it is a story I would desperately like to finish. It is clearly not ended and the promise of a fifth book ... Read More
Rating:  - A Review for the Keeping Place
This book is harder to get into than the previous three in the series. There isn't as much action so it can be hard to stay focased when reading it but there are a few events that take place which leave you tingling like you get after another clue has been revealed in a big mystery. Overall I think it was worth all the money it cost to buy it from Australia but I wouldn't say it was as good as the previous three. It could drag on sometimes and, like I said, it sometimes it was hard to stay with it and focas ... Read More
Rating: - i love this book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Things move way more slowly in this book than they do in the previous three, and there are some parts where you get frustorated with the little amount of action in the beggening. BUT JUST KEEP READING IT, this book gets way more intereasting as carmody winds you through Elspeth's intrieging tale. The keeping place is defenitly my favorite book in the series.
Rating: - Another great book from Isobelle Carmody
In this book the characters have really developed into adults. There are many relationships formed bewteen characters which were not there in the first two books. It explores the dreamtrails and you learn more about the past. The rebellion also occours, with mixed results but Elspeth is more focosed on her quest. In this book there are many interesting suprises, such as finding out that Ariel is the destroyer, finding a statue carved by someone from the past looks exactly like Elspeth and Rushton's kidnapping. ...
