The final volume in the epic Riftwar Cycle.The dragons are calling...
Civil war is tearing apart the Kingdom of the Isles, for the throne lies empty and rivals are converging. Having spirited his beloved Princess Stephane safely out of Roldem, Hal -now Duke of Crydee- must turn his attention to the defence of the ancient realm so that a king can be anointed by the Congress of Lords, rather than by right of might.
But the greatest threat may well lie out of the hands of men. Somewhere in the Grey Towers Mountains something not of this world is emerging. It will require that alliances be made between mortal enemies if disaster is to be averted.
Elves and men must stand together, ancient heroes must rise again, dragons must fly and Pug, Magnus and the other magic-users of Midkemia must be prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice if the whole world is to be saved.

I was 13 when Magician came out (I'm 44 now) so I have history with this series and I've read almost all the books (21 of them) so there are mixed feelings at reading and finishing the last book in the series.Feist writes some of the best political fantasy out there and he didn't disappoint in this book but the problem was - the things that were interesting in this book were the politics and the non-magical characters. Everything magic related (and that includes that pages upon pages ofNovember 8, 2016After a very rough year and watching the country tear itself apart during and after the presidential election, it was time to return to the comfort of some of my favorite literary characters. Outside of what I've already mentioned previously in my reviews, I must say that I love how the author brings his most well known and beloved character full circle, being reborn without the memories of his past life, and placing his character in a situation almost exactly the same as the
The End is Here! The Riftwars are Over! And so we find ourselves at the end of another long-running fantasy series, left with nothing more than the pages we hold in our hands to provide some sense of closure. The final book of any series is always a difficult one to read, and it often seems as if the longer the series, the greater the potential for disappointment. With an open-ended series like this, where each subsequent book has added more characters, more plot threads, and more mythology,
The last of the rift war series was as good as any Raymond E Feist has published in the last ten years but remains a shadow of his early output. The original rift war seres, the Serpent War saga are the best. I remember reading Magician in 1984 and marvelling at its sheer drive and energy and despite some fantasy cliches it's inventiveness, which at its best echoed Moorcock. Yet the characters drove the series Pug, Tomas, Macros and Nakor. In this final book of the series we meet all of them
I don't remember when I first picked up Magician: Apprentice, but it has to have been at least a decade ago. Since then, Feist's books have been a sort of respite from some of the deeper, harder to read books I get into. They are always fun to read, and I always tear through them in a short amount of time. Feist has an amazing way with his characters; despite many many generations passing from the beginning of the Riftwar books, I still cared about every successive generation of protagonists.
Feist has given us many things through these past 30 years. He has given us characters to love and some to hate and some to simply stand in awe of. Now Feist not only gives us closure but he reprises his work in the most spectacular ways. This last book in the Riftwar cycle ties everything together and more. The stars of this book are some old friends like Pug, Miranda and even... dare I say it *Oh god not him again* Macros the Black. The greatness of this book though is that it gives also gives
Having just finished Magician's End Raymond Feist has brought use full circle, he has woven a wonderful tapestry of both war and redemption. The World of Midkemia stands on the brink of total destruction by the very heart of darkness, in order to save the wold Pug His son Magnus and all Their friends and allies must do the unthinkable. In the End Lives lost loved one gone Pug does what only a father can and trades his life for his son's dieing instead of Magnus but so great was all he had
