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.

1. Heather - 1/5 stars - I was really disappointed with "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" cartoon. I grew up reading the book and was excited to see it brought to life on screen. However, the animation was lackluster and the characters lacked the depth and charm that made them so memorable in the book. The pacing was also off, making the story feel rushed and disjointed. Overall, it failed to capture the magic and wonder of the original story, and I would not recommend it to fellow fans of the book.
2. Mark - 2/5 stars - As a fan of C.S. Lewis' "The Chronicles of Narnia" series, I was really hoping that the cartoon adaptation of "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" would do justice to the beloved story. Unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations. The animation was mediocre and the voice acting was often flat and unengaging. Additionally, the character development was lacking, leaving me feeling disconnected from the protagonists and their journey. While the cartoon had its moments, it ultimately failed to capture the magic and depth of the original book, leaving me disappointed.
3. Laura - 2/5 stars - I was excited to introduce my children to "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" through the cartoon adaptation, but it fell flat for both of us. The animation was outdated and the characters looked more like caricatures than the majestic creatures described in the book. The storyline felt rushed and lacked the emotional impact of the original story. The voice acting was also subpar, making it difficult to connect with the characters. Overall, it was a disappointing adaptation that failed to capture the heart and beauty of the original book.
