Synopsis

"This is an excellent series, and Echoes of Betrayal is particularly well done. [Elizabeth Moon] is a consistently entertaining writer, and this book lives up to her standards."—San Jose Mercury News All is not well in the Eight Kingdoms. In Lyonya, King Kieri is about to celebrate marriage to his beloved, the half-elf Arian. But uncanny whispers from the spirits of his ancestors continue to warn of treachery and murder, and a finger of suspicion points in a shocking direction. Meanwhile, in Tsaia, the young king Mikeli grapples with unrest among his own nobility after granting the title and estates of a traitorous magelord to a Verrakaien—who not only possesses the forbidden magic but is a woman. The controversial decision and its consequences put the king's claim to the throne in peril. But even greater danger looms. A dragon's wild offspring are sowing death and destruction, upsetting the ancient balance of power. A collision seems inevitable. Yet when it comes, it will be utterly unexpected—and all the more devastating for it. "Fans of epic fantasy . . . should enjoy this series."—Library Journal "Rousing action and intriguing plot twists."—Kirkus Reviews

As you read this you probably picture me calmly sitting here at my keyboard preparing to tell you why I like this book and gave it my rare 5 star rating.

Goodreads review by Joshua on February 27, 2012

This book definitely reminded me why I enjoy reading Elizabeth Moon - I really care what happens to these people, and even when I feel the characters are a little unrealistic in some ways (because they represent an archetype more than a real person would), I still want to know what happens next.

Goodreads review by Kent on December 11, 2021

I only bought this because it was at the dollar store and was autographed. I intended to give it to someone who was a fan of the author but after posting for that on Facebook no one came forward so I just hung on to it. Finally figured I'd read it. The characters were good. I found myself genuinely......more

Goodreads review by Richard on July 02, 2022

I love this series. There are occasional inconsistencies (which bother me), but the world is remarkably consistent and the characters (well-developed characters) fit quite nicely in it. There is enough unknown backstory (what we know of it is also consistent) to lend an air of mystery and keep you r......more
