“As slow as the first book was in The Last Chronicles "tetralogy" the Fatal Revenant was far more fast-paced. Battles with Urviles, Waynhim, Giants, Cavewights, Ravers, Ramen and Haruchai are why you read the book. More importantly, Thomas Covenant makes his triumphant, if caustic, return.
The one and only downer is that readers will have to wait until 2010 to read the next book, and until 2013 before they find out whether Linden Avery, the Ur-Lord and Unbeliever and their heterogenous companions will defeat Lord Foul and the array of villains lined against them.
Should be against the law for writers of book series to make their fans wait this long...”
