Items related to Shadowheart (Shadowmarch)
Thousands of years ago the gods fought and fell in the deeps beneath what is now Southmarch Castle, then were banished into eternal sleep. Now at least one of them is stirring again, dreaming of vengeance against humankind. Southmarch haunts the dreams of men as well as gods. Royal twins Barrick and Briony Eddon, the heirs of Southmarch s ruling family, are hurrying back home as well: Barrick now carries the heritage of the immortal Qar inside him, and Briony has a small army at her back and a fiery determination to recover her father s throne and revenge herself on the usurpers. The cruel and powerful southern ruler known as the Autarch of Xis wants the power of the gods for his own, a power he can only gain if he conquers Southmarch. And nobody knows what the Qar want, only that the mysterious fairy - folk are prepared to die for it or to kill every living thing in Southmarch Castle and in all the lands around. It will come to an apocalyptic conclusion on Midsummer Night, when the spirits of the haunted past and the desperate struggles of the present come together in one great final battle. Many will die. Many more will be transformed out of all recognition, and the world will be forever changed."

Review:
"The plot springs from climax to climax as intrigues and secrets are unwound and revealed." -- Booklist
"His books are immersive, drawing the reader into his work, seducing them to not notice the time flying past them as they delve further into Williams' imagination." -- Sacramento Book Review
"Perhaps the greatest thing I can say about "Shadowheart "is that through four long volumes of a story, Williams convinced me to care utterly for his characters and there's a hole now in my life where they once lived. Few storytellers can do that. Williams does it with alarming regularity." -- A Dribble of Ink
""Shadowrise" and "Shadowheart "are as good an ending to a fantasy saga as I've ever had the pleasure of reading." -- Fantasy Book Critic
""Shadowheart "was an immensely satisfying final entry to the series.... Anyone who likes their fantasy 'Tolkienesque' will be hard-pressed to find any author writing today better than Tad Williams." -- SFSite
"All four volumes of "Shadowmarch" are must reads for any fan of high fantasy." -- BookLoons
