Editorial Review: It was the best thing that ever happened to him.It was his god’s blessing.It was hell.Vell was content to be a mere warrior in the Thunderbeast tribe, staying behind on the hunt to guard the camp. But then something alien awakened deep within him, the spirit of a behemoth that he could not control. With it came attacks from the sky, visitors from far lands, and a mysterious command from their ancestral totem: Find the living. And this time, no one was going to let him just stay behind.

"Son of Thunder" is a novel about a group of Uthgart barbarians set on a quest by their deity to find their totem animals. The problems start when the Zhentarim take interest in the powerful magic somehow connected to those animals... This short description maybe sounds a bit dull and rehearsed, but this is, after all, an interesting book.

Not a very good ... Read More

Rating: - Average at best...
Son of Thunder by Murray J.D. Leeder is the 3rd book in a series of stand alone novels focusing on the Fighter class set in the Forgotten Realms. This is Leeder's first full length novel in the realms and I must say it is less than stellar. That is not to say it's not a decent book, but not in the same league with others who have written these stand alones such as Erik de Bie, Jess Lebow, Kameron Franklin et al.
The basic plot behind Son of Thunder (SoT) is a decent enough story. It involves a ... Read More
