The Amber Enchantress by Troy Denning

4.0

This was fantastic. Lots of Dark Sun history was revealed that I did not expect. The interlocking character back story was used very very well. The combat was almost exclusively magical in nature and handled very very well.

One of the things that I liked about this book was the further development of the elves moral ambiguity and its relationship to Sadira's development. In book two we learned about leadership or something, but here we learn about the two sides of defiling--the need for moral absolutes--the nature of personal growth and personal power. The end battle seems a little much, everything comes together a little to cleanly, but overall a very good book.
