Pamela Beckford 4.0 out of 5 stars Adventure with fantasy battle scenes Reviewed in the United States on 1 April 2014Book four in the Legends of Windemere series is an adventure back to Hero's Gate. Nyx is there on a mission to undo the harm she did when they were there before. The story adds another hero - Timoran Wrath. He is a lovable giant who has a soft spot for Nyx. His job is to protect Nyx as she tries to defeat Krypters and the Lich. The Sari / Luke story is complicated by the introduction of a thief.
I really enjoy the battle scenes and the inventiveness and creativity of the author. There is also further character development as we get to know them just a little bit more. The fights are fast paced and held my interest. But I felt like this was two different books. One book revolved around defeating evil and the other book was a love story. It may be that I get bored easily, but I felt like this book should have been broken into a book and a novella or a third of it should have been edited out.
I do recommend this book, but only if you have already read the first three. This is a great YA series with each book a separate adventure.

I especially enjoy the complicated relationship exploration between the fantastic characters of Kira, Sari, and Luke Callindor. I look forward to reading more of this story arc.
Technically correct and engaging, though it begins a little slowly. Slowly building in tension and action, a few revelations that close an arc or two happen along the way.
A number of new characters are introduced, Timoran the Barbarian being my personal favorite. As with the previous books, there are no cookie cutter characters, each one has a story and enough development to flesh everything out. As usual, Mr. Yallowitz explores and expands upon very strong female leading characters, there are no "damsels in distress" in this series.
Setting as it has been done in the previous books is correctly conveyed, I was able to slip on the characters shoes and stroll around the world. That is an absolute must for me.
As I stated before, pacing is done well and builds into a fevered pitch, then gives a nice cool down period afterwards.
You can tell that Mr. Yallowitz's ability and confidence is growing with each book, and this one in my humble opinion is the best one yet.

This is the fourth book in the Legends of Windemere series by Charles Yallowitz. I was so happy to see my favorite character Nyx return to Hero’s Gate to confront a tragic mistake made against the goblin nation. I don’t want to spoil the story but let me say the time was right for a showdown with the community. This story is riveting and keeps the reader engaged throughout with development of the main characters Luke, Nyx and Sari. The affection each has for the other is a very rewarding subplot that I hope continues until the end. Of course, Luke and Sari have a relationship that is complicated in that Luke is engaged to Kira, which adds a level of sophistication to the story. The battle scenes are great, and the evil ones are very real and multidimensional. A new character Timoran Wrath the Barbarian is introduced and he becomes a character who fits into the story perfectly. We want Timoran to appear in the next episode so that we can see all of his potential realized
The writing is crisp and the descriptions perfect. Mr. Yallowitz is a master at storytelling. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes a good story well told.

These characters often embody the archetype of the noble and just ruler, exemplifying qualities such as wisdom, bravery, and compassion. The legends of crowned magical folk are not limited to benevolent rulers, however. Some stories feature dark and deceitful monarchs who abuse their powers for personal gain. These tales explore the consequences of arrogance and selfishness, as well as the struggle between good and evil. The contrast between virtuous and corrupted crowned magical folk adds depth and complexity to the narratives. Crowned magical folk can also be found in stories where the crown itself holds extraordinary power. These tales often revolve around quests to obtain or protect enchanted crowns that grant their wearers immense abilities. Characters may face trials and tribulations as they navigate treacherous landscapes and encounter dangerous adversaries in pursuit of these coveted artifacts. One iconic example of crowned magical folk can be seen in the story of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. King Arthur himself is a crowned magical figure, chosen to wield the legendary sword Excalibur and lead his knights in a quest for justice and unity. Their adventures showcase the struggles and triumphs of the crowned magical folk as they uphold their responsibilities and strive for a better world. In conclusion, crowned magical folk and fairy tales provide a rich and captivating narrative landscape for readers and listeners alike. These stories explore themes of power, responsibility, and the eternal struggle between good and evil. Whether in the form of noble rulers, corrupted monarchs, or quests for enchanted crowns, the essence of crowned magical folk in fairy tales continues to captivate and inspire our imaginations..
