<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>"When it comes to inventing new worlds, he's as skilled as J.R.R. Tolkien and Frank Herbert." -Christopher Paolini, bestselling author of <i>Eragon</i>. </b><p>Southmarch Castle is about to be caught between two implacable enemies, the ancient, immortal Qar and the insane god-king, the Autarch of Xis. Meanwhile, its two young defenders, Princess Briony and Prince Barrick, are both trapped far away from home and fighting for their lives.</p><p>And now, something is awakening underneath Southmarch Castle, something powerful and terrible that the world has not seen for thousands of years. Can Barrick and Briony, along with a tiny handful of allies, ordinary and extraordinary, find a way to save their world and prevent the rise of a terrible new age-an age of unending darkness?</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"The plot springs from climax to climax as intrigues and secrets are unwound and revealed." -- <b>Booklist</b> <p/>"His books are immersive, drawing the reader into his work, seducing them to not notice the time flying past them as they delve further into Williams' imagination." -- <b>Sacramento Book Review</b> <p/>"Perhaps the greatest thing I can say about <i>Shadowheart </i>is that through four long volumes of a story, Williams convinced me to care utterly for his characters and there's a hole now in my life where they once lived. Few storytellers can do that. Williams does it with alarming regularity." -- <b>A Dribble of Ink</b> <p/>"<i>Shadowrise</i> and <i>Shadowheart </i>are as good an ending to a fantasy saga as I've ever had the pleasure of reading." -- <b>Fantasy Book Critic</b> <p/>"<i>Shadowheart </i>was an immensely satisfying final entry to the series.... Anyone who likes their fantasy 'Tolkienesque' will be hard-pressed to find any author writing today better than Tad Williams." -- <b>SFSite</b> <p/>"All four volumes of <i>Shadowmarch</i> are must reads for any fan of high fantasy." -- <b>BookLoons</b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Tad Williams</b> has held more jobs than any sane person should admit to--singing in a band, selling shoes, managing a financial institution, throwing newspapers, and designing military manuals, to name just a few. He also hosted a syndicated radio show for ten years, worked in theater and television production, taught both grade-school and college classes, and worked in multimedia for a major computer firm.
