Imaginative Journey. Entertaining Fantasy
By Friedrich Feuerstein (North Central Texas)
This review is from: The Master And The Fighter (Paperback)
Carol Montague's 'The Master and the Fighter' is an imaginative journey into a mystical, medieval-like world populated by
heroines/heroes, villains and magical creatures both good and evil.
'The Master and the Fighter' is an entertaining fantasy rich with it's own culture and history. It's a book you'll find hard to put down
and you'll definitely want to read it again. Montague is an imaginative storyteller with a very easy to read style which I found to be in
some ways reminiscent of Marion Zimmer Bradley. I look forward to reading more of Carol Montague's work in the coming years.
My ONLY disappointment with 'The Master and the Fighter' is that it is not a 'stand-alone' story. Honestly, it does leave you hanging
just a little at the end, but still, it is ended well and feels- for lack of a better way to put it- 'natural'. As I understand it, this book is
part one of a dyad and the conclusion is being written as of the writing of this review (that information is based, in part, on an
authors note at the end of the book as well as some notes regarding the sequel I found on the authors website). None-the-less, 'The
Master and the Fighter' is a well written fantasy and a wonderful read. I recommend it and I eagerly await the sequel.

Masterfully written!
By Sry (Washington, DC)
This review is from: The Master And The Fighter (Paperback)
Carol Montague's The Master and the Fighter is an epic novel, finely woven as any Renaissance tapestry. It transports the reader to
a world vastly different and disconcertingly similar to our own. Her heroines are brave and resourceful and imbued with magic that is
startling in it's creativity and imagination.
This isn't another wizard book by any means. Reminiscent of the brilliance of Stephen Donaldson's Lord Foul's Bane and The Mirror
of Her Dreams, readers everywhere will realize a new literary star in the Sci Fi universe has risen. This is a book you'll keep on your
shelf and revisit like an old friend.
