Pamela Beckford 4.0 out of 5 stars Adventure with fantasy battle scenes Reviewed in the United States on 1 April 2014Book four in the Legends of Windemere series is an adventure back to Hero's Gate. Nyx is there on a mission to undo the harm she did when they were there before. The story adds another hero - Timoran Wrath. He is a lovable giant who has a soft spot for Nyx. His job is to protect Nyx as she tries to defeat Krypters and the Lich. The Sari / Luke story is complicated by the introduction of a thief.
I really enjoy the battle scenes and the inventiveness and creativity of the author. There is also further character development as we get to know them just a little bit more. The fights are fast paced and held my interest. But I felt like this was two different books. One book revolved around defeating evil and the other book was a love story. It may be that I get bored easily, but I felt like this book should have been broken into a book and a novella or a third of it should have been edited out.
I do recommend this book, but only if you have already read the first three. This is a great YA series with each book a separate adventure.

I especially enjoy the complicated relationship exploration between the fantastic characters of Kira, Sari, and Luke Callindor. I look forward to reading more of this story arc.
Technically correct and engaging, though it begins a little slowly. Slowly building in tension and action, a few revelations that close an arc or two happen along the way.
A number of new characters are introduced, Timoran the Barbarian being my personal favorite. As with the previous books, there are no cookie cutter characters, each one has a story and enough development to flesh everything out. As usual, Mr. Yallowitz explores and expands upon very strong female leading characters, there are no "damsels in distress" in this series.
Setting as it has been done in the previous books is correctly conveyed, I was able to slip on the characters shoes and stroll around the world. That is an absolute must for me.
As I stated before, pacing is done well and builds into a fevered pitch, then gives a nice cool down period afterwards.
You can tell that Mr. Yallowitz's ability and confidence is growing with each book, and this one in my humble opinion is the best one yet.

This is the fourth book in the Legends of Windemere series by Charles Yallowitz. I was so happy to see my favorite character Nyx return to Hero’s Gate to confront a tragic mistake made against the goblin nation. I don’t want to spoil the story but let me say the time was right for a showdown with the community. This story is riveting and keeps the reader engaged throughout with development of the main characters Luke, Nyx and Sari. The affection each has for the other is a very rewarding subplot that I hope continues until the end. Of course, Luke and Sari have a relationship that is complicated in that Luke is engaged to Kira, which adds a level of sophistication to the story. The battle scenes are great, and the evil ones are very real and multidimensional. A new character Timoran Wrath the Barbarian is introduced and he becomes a character who fits into the story perfectly. We want Timoran to appear in the next episode so that we can see all of his potential realized
The writing is crisp and the descriptions perfect. Mr. Yallowitz is a master at storytelling. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes a good story well told.

Reviews for "Analyzing the Themes of Love and Sacrifice in Kira and Rune's Relationship"
1. Emily - 2 stars - I didn't enjoy the relationship between Kira and Rune in this book. It felt forced and lacking chemistry. Their interactions seemed awkward and unnatural, and I couldn't connect with their supposed love for each other. The romance aspect of the story felt forced and unnecessary, taking away from the overall plot.
2. Mark - 3 stars - While I enjoyed the overall story and the magical elements in the book, I found the relationship between Kira and Rune to be underdeveloped and unsatisfying. It felt rushed and lacked depth, leaving me uninvested in their romance. I think the author could have spent more time exploring their connection and building their relationship, rather than focusing on other less important aspects of the story.
3. Sarah - 2.5 stars - The relationship between Kira and Rune felt cliché and predictable. It followed the typical "opposites attract" trope without adding anything original or unique to the story. I found their interactions to be shallow and lacking emotional depth, making it hard for me to root for them as a couple. Overall, I was disappointed with their relationship and wished for more complexity and development.
4. Mike - 2 stars - The relationship between Kira and Rune felt forced and unbelievable. Their love seemed to come out of nowhere, with no real buildup or explanation. I couldn't understand why they were drawn to each other, as their personalities clashed and they had little in common. It felt like the author wanted to include a romance aspect in the story but failed to make it convincing or engaging. Overall, I was not impressed with their relationship.
5. Jennifer - 3 stars - The relationship between Kira and Rune in this book was lackluster and forgettable. There was no real chemistry between them, and their interactions felt forced and artificial. I found it hard to care about their love story as it lacked depth and emotional connection. I wish the author had spent more time developing their relationship and making it more believable and engaging.
