A Darkness at Sethanon is the stunning climax to Raymond E. Feist's brilliant epic fantasy trilogy, the Riftwar Saga.
Here be dragons and sorcery, swordplay, quests, pursuits, intrigues, stratagems, journeys to the darkest realms of the dead and titanic battles between the forces of good and darkest evil.
Here is the final dramatic confrontation between Arutha and Murmandamus - and the perilous quest of Pug the magician and Tomas the warrior for Macros the Black. A Darkness at Sethanon is heroic fantasy of the highest excitement and on the grandest scale, a magnificent conclusion to one of the great fantasy sagas of our time.
Omg!!! I was at one point about to throw the book in the bin sneaky sneaky killing of Arutha I was distraught!! Poor Jimmy. But all was well that sneaky prince ran off to save the world! This is one series I've absolutely loved! Raymond E Feist is a fantastic writer I'd love to see this series developed into films it would rival lord of the rings! I was in awe at the last 5 chapters. Brilliant brilliant set of books!!!

Shaun Collins (3 KP) rated Doctor Who: Supremacy of the Cybermen in Books

Some absolutely BRILLIANT moments couched in a substandard story from George Mann. Which is disappointing, because normally his Who work is so on point. instead this is a fairly middling affair. I liked it, but felt I really could have been wowed by it with just a few changes. Full review available on www.travelingthevortex.com

Gru's twin brother Dru provides a platform for gags and sentiment a-plenty
Relentless pace
The prison scene is great
That 80's soundtrack - even a bit of 'Straits for the dads/grandads
Slightly bizarre but generally fun and enjoyable

Brilliant end credits bit
Funny from start to finish
Definitely not one for the young avenger fans out there. Trust me. Funny, gory with plenty of one liners and even more blood. One of the best Marvel films out there. Highly recommended

Nostalgic yet hugely frustrating
I loved this as a child, so getting the chance to play an updated version is fantastic. The graphics look brilliant now and it's hugely addictive and nostalgic. The only negative is that it seems a million times harder than it was years ago and can become massively frustrating at times.

Brilliant read
Honest and open discussion about the highs and lows of being a neurosurgeon. Fantastically written. Keeps you interested and wanting to read more. Read it in just a few sittings, which is unheard of for me with a young baby.
Really enjoyed reading this book and would definitely recommend.

A Sensory Overload
I watched this at my local indie cinema last year, and I came out completely stunned. I was shocked, disturbed... and euphoric. Every single second of this outstanding movie grabs hold of your senses, and twists them beyond anything you’ve experienced before. Brutal but brilliant, with a soundtrack to die for.

this is a very good read, contains lots of romance, even though it was a little slow in the beginning, after that I couldn't put it down. the story line is brilliant and very captivating. I was totally hooked till the last page. the characters were fantastically written and well thought out.
