"The Shadowmoon "is a small, unobtrusive wooden schooner whose passengers and crew are much more than they seem: Ferran, the Shadowmoon's lusty captain who dreams of power; Roval, the warrior-sorcerer; Velander and Terikel, priestesses of a nearly extinct sect; and the chivalrous vampyre Laron, who has been trapped in a fourteen-year-old body for 700 years. They sail the coast, gathering useful information, passing as simple traders. But when they witness the awful power of Silverdeath, an uncontrollable doomsday weapon of awesome power, they realize they must act. But every single king, emperor and despot covets Silverdeath's power. It will take all of their wits and more than a little luck if they hope to prevent one of these power hungry fools from destroying the world. Their only advantage? "The Shadowmoon." While it seems to be little more that a small trading vessel--too small for battle, too fat for speed-it is actually one of the most sophisticated vessels in the world, one that allows them to travel to places where no others would dare. They can only hope it will be enough to save them all before Silverdeath rains destruction across their entire world.… (mere)

I couldn't finish the book either, and I was about halfway through when I gave up.

The problem was that nothing about the book could hold my interest. In the beginning, I wanted to understand more about everything - who the characters were (their histories, their personalities, their abilities), what the plot was (what's going on with this ship? with that continent? etc), the way magic works and its role in the world. At halfway through, I had far, far more questions than answers, and none of the characters seemed likable (with the possible exception of the vampire). I just did not see any prospect for answering questions more than raising questions, so I gave up.

The writing was fine, but the storytelling was altogether unsatisfactory. ( )

Took me about 75 pages to get into - McMullen's style is different than I'm used to and it was a little hard to follow. Once I got used to the style, I couldn't put the book down - similar to the reaction I had when first reading Steven Erikson's Gardens of the Moon. ( )

The most entertaining fantasy novel of all time, bar none. Tolkien would be lucky to be asked to press McMullen's pants.
