Editorial Review:

Amazon.co.uk Review:
The Dark Remains, the third volume of Mark Anthony's The Last Rune sequence, shares with its predecessors Beyond the Paleand The Keep of Fire, a strong sense of two worlds and the rules by which they operate. Our own world is one where reason holds sway, but is not the only factor. As Travis and Grace struggle to save the wounded knight Beltan, whom they have brought through a portal from his own world, they have to deal not only with hospital bureaucracies, but also with powerful business interests who are as prone to using magically modified hunting beasts as they are crooked evangelists and sophisticated bugging equipment. Much of what is going on in the magical world of Eldh, from the murder of gods to the jockeying of priests and royal advisors for prestige, is best understood through reason as well: the former goddess Melia proves a competent detective. Anthony effectively balances a large cast of flawed well-intentioned characters and some interesting villains, many of whom know no more than the heroes what ultimately is going on; the set pieces of violent and magical action are involving and exciting as well as psychologically and emotionally plausible.--Roz Kaveney




Rating: - Brilliant!
This book continues the spellbinding story which commutes back and forth between our world and theirs. I nearly cried when I reached the end of this book and found that there was another on the way which I would have to wait for. Absolutely one of the best stories I have ever read. For anyone who wishes they could magically move between worlds (like in the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe) this book is a must.

Rating: - a fantastically griping twisting story
i luv this book as you learn more about the charectors that you've already got to know and love plus you are introduced to more charectors that you just like imediately like marji.

This book had me up till half one as i just had to finish it. Infact the booked had me so ingrossed in what was going on right then that i didn't evan think about what was gonna happen like i normally do which i liked.

however the book was a litle slow in places for me which is why it only got 4 stars ... Read More
