Krondor the Betrayal is another step into the Mystical world of Raymond E. Feist and his supporters. I have heard it said that the book is not good because it was based on a game. I never played the game, so the book seemed absolutely fine to me. This book is primarily about a Moredhel Chieftan, that sees things from a different point of view, and even sides with King Dolgan, the legendary dwarf. He comes bearing a warning to the Kingdom that another Moredhel has promised the clans that Murmandamus is still alive in a cave underneath Sethanon. He also speaks of a mighty dragon that surives there gaurding him. The legendary PUG comes into play when his daughter is kidnapped. He also learns of some Tsurani hands in play with the Moredhel rallying to come against the kingdom. The other intersting part of thhis book, is that at the same time Jimmy the Hand, now James the Princes squire, takes a part in defeating Nighthawks, and discovering a new gang headed by someone named the Crawler. He also discovers someone who looks almost identical to himself, and plays an intriguing part in this book, and ones to follow. People that would enjoy this book the most would have to be the die hard Magicain fans, but one thing to keep in mind is that this book does not take place after the Serpant War, instead it is somewhere in between the end of the Riftwar and before Eric and Roo come around.
I would definitely recomend this book, but keep in mind thier may be a few slow parts. But, the overall book is good!
