DESCRIPTION:
His world was being invaded by pitiless sorcerers from Lupan, who could sweep whole armies aside, and even defeat the invulnerable glass dragons. Faced with civilization crumbling around him, and organized resistance shattered by the invincible magic of the Lupanians, he chances upon an unlikely ally and begins to fight back. When it opened, however, he knew that it was much, much worse. At first Wayfarer Inspector Danolarian thought the huge oval thing that had fallen from the sky was a dragon's egg. Surrender or flight were the only options but not for Inspector Danolarian, his Wayfarer Constables, and his sweetheart, the sorceress Lavenci.Although Danolarian is no sorcerer, he's no ordinary Wayfarer either. It won't be easy, for he has to rally the demoralized sorcerers of Alberin, organize its terrified citizens, stay one step ahead of his own past, and, most importantly, survive a dinner party with Lavenci's moth
James D. DeWitt said Invasion of the Moonworld. McMullen is never so crass as to actually describe it, but the Moonworlds Saga is set on the earth-sized moon Verral, which orbits with its three sister moons around a kind of Super-Jovian ringed planet. Where our Jupiter generates strong magnetic fields, Verral experiences etherics, which give rise to a kind of sorcerous magic. A kind of magic which, if wrongly used, can have all kinds of disastrous consequences.Voidfarer follows the further adventures and misadventures of the motley . A Touch of Romantic Fantasy to the Moonworlds Saga April The best of the Moonworlds series so far, in my opinion. I really liked Voyage of the Shadowmoon a lot, and I liked Glass Dragons too, but this book out-shines the others. The writing is definitely getting better. The story is all about an alien invasion of the planet Verral and what the locals do to fight it off - old idea, creative new angle.It ties up some loose ends from the previous two Moonworld books but you don't need to read the earlier books to appreciate this one, as the boo. Not bad Cat-a-list This is the weakest of the four in the series, with fewer new ideas, but enjoyable nonetheless. The characters undergo some changes but the development is minor. The author is inventive, the pacing is steady, and generally kept my interest, enough to read the fourth (and last) in the series.
Danolarian Scyverin of the Wayfarer Constables can turn for help to such friends and allies as the 87-pound Constable Riellen, gifted at both mayhem and rabble-rousing; Constable Waller, in the form of a talking cat; and a beautiful and shrewd woman, Lavenczi, for whom the inspector has conceived a passion. The poorly led defenders have few weapons more advanced than bows and arrows. While Lavenczi is under a magical glamour that keeps her from being touched, she still has the wits to capture two of the Lupanians' fighting machines and turn them against their creators. .
