Apunta't a LibraryThing per saber si aquest llibre et pot agradar. No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. Dit boek heeft echt een duisterder sfeer dan de eerste twee boeken. Er zit wat meer diepgang in het verhaal en je krijgt heel wat te horen over het verleden van de Sartanen op deze wereld. Dat maakt het voor mij tot een ietsje beter plot dan de vorige twee boeken. Verder is het met dezelfde vaart geschreven, maar met een wat serieuzere toon. Dat hoort ook absoluut bij deze sombere en claustrofobische wereld. Maar ik mis Zifnab en de draak. Op naar deel 4. ( ) El ya conocido personaje, Haplo, el patryn que ha recibido la orden de viajar a cada uno de los cuatro mundos a través de la Puerta de la Muerte, se encamina a Abarrach, el reino de piedra, a bordo de su nave, surcando una extensión de magma agitado. Haplo comparte su embarcación, protegida por las runas, con el sartán llamado Alfred, a quien hasta ahora había considerado el último miembro de su raza que quedaba con vida. Sin embargo, al poco tiempo de descubrir la ciudad desierta y ensangrentada de Puerto Seguro, Haplo y Alfred -enemigos por naturaleza y camaradas por necesidad- topan cara a cara con una tribu perdida de sartanes dedicada a la práctica de su magia más prohibida. The continuing adventures of Haplo and his seemingly indestructible dog. This time they're visiting the world of Stone, which unlike the world of fire, has lots of fire in it - some great magma seas. Life is hard here with acrid air, and harsh temperatures, the mensch have all died out, but instead there's lots of Sartans. Which comes as a bit of a shock. A quick bit of investigation proves that these seem much diminished from the opponents Haplo knows, even compared to the hapless Alfred who's turned up again. They do have one thing going for them though, they've learnt necromancy, which would be of vast assistance to his Lord's plans to conquer the four worlds. If only Haplo could trick the secret from them. Alfred doesn't seem so keen on this idea, knowing that the concept had been forbidden for good reasons. Maybe this is why the Sartan on other worlds had died out - their soul's recycled into the feckless dead of Abbarath. Albert knows full well there's something suspicious about Haplo's dog, after it gets chucked in a pit of magma and then manages to turn alive and well a short time later. Strangely Haplo himself doesn't question this, although he as being poisoned at the time, in a battle to wrest information from him as he seeks to understand the necromancy. He is considerably weaker here than we've previously been led to believe, and starting to doubt both his purpose and his Lord. Another not at all subtle reference to higher Powers might mean there's more going on than it first seems, which would cast all of the Sartan's "benevolent" actions in a very different light. Wasn't so convinced by this one really, contained nothing of the Labyrinth and the mysticism doesn't really fit. We do learn a bit more about Haplo and Alfred though.

Distincions
Abarrach, the Realm of stone. Here, on a barrennbsp;nbsp;world of underground caverns built around a core ofnbsp;nbsp;molten lava, the lesser races -- humans, elves,nbsp;nbsp;and dwarves -- seem to have all died off. Here, too,nbsp;nbsp;what may well be the last remnants of the oncenbsp;nbsp;powerful Sartan still struggle to survive. For Haplonbsp;nbsp;and Alfred -- enemies by heritage, travelingnbsp;nbsp;companions by necessity -- Abarrach may reveal more thannbsp;nbsp;either dares to discover about the history ofnbsp;nbsp;Sartan... and the future of all their descendants.
