Deep Plot, Exciting Characters and Packed with Action!
This book is great. I just ordered another copy for a friend. Thater takes his fantasy and places it inside your brain. I wasn't reading a book, I was standing in the middle of the action, looking to pick up a sword and jump in. There's lots of great action that almost ends...but, there is just a thin, little thread left dangling...until the next book in the series. Okay, let's have it... (I'm addicted.)

A Riveting Fantasy Saga
This book is highly recommended to anyone that is interested in adventures set in the medevial period. The stories depict a battle between humans vs dark and hideous monster like villians that entered the earth's realm through a mysterious portal. Their sole purpose is to create havoc and the destruction of the human kind.

The author draws you into the story with detailed and graphic descriptions of the surroundings and events. The fighting scenes are so well described that the events become very vivid in your mind, transporting you through time.

The main character seem to be Angle Theta, a very mysterious individual with combating skills beyond the imagination. In stories of this type, the battle is usually between good and evil where the hero represents good. However, the line between good and evil is very blurred in this story. Events and decisions makes you question the morality of individuals.

The author seems to suggest that the main characters and stories are based on actual events. Regardless if this is true or not, the book is an excellent read and I highly recommend it.

Top Fantasy Book
This is a complex but highly entertaining swords and sorcery story, reminiscent of the pulp novels of Robert E. Howard, but with more depth and undercurrents to the plot. Thater's character `Lord Angle Theta' is an almost larger than life hero like Howard's Conan or Kull. And although he's perhaps their equal in brawn, he's far their better in brains. The other characters are all memorable and interesting, especially the grumpy gnome called Ob. Thater's treatment of magic is interesting and original. I checked out his website and he has excerpts from quite a few stories posted there, and it seems there's a whole series of books in progress continuing with the same characters featured in this book. This is reflected in Harbinger of Doom in that the people, places, and events seem highly developed and well-thought out. I can't wait for the next book!
