Representaion To Books Nightseer
Keleios the Half-Elf was but five years old when she saw her mother murdered by the evil witch Harque. For years she has asked the gods for the strength she'll need to avenge this foul death, and it seems the gods have answered her. She's been granted an array of powers never before seen in one person, but she has also acquired a most terrifying burden, a demonmark. This mark can open the door to undreamed abilities, but it can also open her soul to the forbidden dark side of magic. Keleios must choose between the demonmark's tainted power and the lives of those she holds most dear. In an epic battle of good versus evil, of enchanted swords and shapeshifting dragons, of unquenchable hatred and unlikely love, Keleios must face her own demons—before she can acquire the most important power of all: the power to forgive.

I agree with Stacey, it wasn't one of her better books, it was slow and ended like the author was tired of writing it.This is an early work by Ms Hamilton so I was hoping that it was a halfway decently written story rather than the smut-fest that the Anita Blake series turned into. A stand alone fantasy - seriously, how bad can it be? Hmm.The plot: our heroine is Keleios Incantare, demon-named Nightseer (this is helpfully repeated several times in the book by the terribly formal villains, in case we forget), a half-elf journeyman enchanter/sorceress who seems to live at a keep where people with magical power
I really enjoyed this! LKH's debut novel, it has a much different feel from her other works, but not an unwelcome one. Set in a fantasy world rather than the 'real world', its a very different kind of story, but the writing style and characterization of the protagonist are unique to LKH. I loved the varied action and intrigue. The monsters and magic were fascinating and used in creative ways while still conforming to the 'natural laws' of the setting, which is something that LKH has been known
Hamilton's first book is completely different from everything else of hers I've read. Its more of a pure fantasy novel for starters, set in a high magic world where demons and spells are commonplace. Her characters are interesting as always and I would certainly love to see more.But you can tell this is her first novel. The book feels disjointed, as if we're thrown in the middle of a story. Events the characters experienced in the past are referenced frequently, but we only get a small idea of
That was actually pretty good! I just wish it was longer or that there were more books because that ending left me with a lot of questions.
I did not finish Hamiltons debut. It became too confusing with all those different kinds of witches, sorcerers, wizards, phantoms, spells, flashes, visions, fires, dreams, flashbacks, elves and what not. Maybe it gets better later. I am not patient enough.
Not part of her series & her first book of all, I think. Not bad.
