Narrative In Pursuance Of Books A Man Rides Through (Mordant's Need #2)

In The Mirror of Her Dreams, the dazzling first volume of Mordant's Need, New York Times bestselling author Stephen R. Donaldson introduced us to the richly imagined world of Mordant, where mirrors are magical portals into places of beauty and terror. Now, with A Man Rides Through, Donaldson brings the story of Terisa Morgan to an unforgettable conclusion...

Aided by the powerful magic of Vagel, the evil Arch-Imager, the merciless armies are marching against the kingdom of Mordant. In its hour of greatest need, two unlikely champions emerge. One is Geraden, whose inability to master the simplest skills of Imagery has made him a laughingstock. The other is Terisa Morgan, transferred to Mordant from a Manhattan apartment by Geraden's faulty magic. Together, Geraden and Terisa discover undreamed-of talents within themselves - talents that make them more than a match for any Imager ... including Vagel himself.

Unfortunately, those talents also mark them for death. Branded as traitors, they are forced to flee the castle for their lives. Now, all but defenseless in a war-torn countryside ravaged by the vilest horrors Imagery can spawn, Geraden and Terisa must put aside past failures and find the courage to embrace their powers—and their love—before Vagel can spring his final trap.

Column Regarding Books A Man Rides Through (Mordant's Need #2)

First off, read both books of this duology, if you're going to read it at all. There is NO POINT to reading just one.Minor spoiler: Book 1 ends with a MAJOR CLIFF HANGER so you HAVE to read book 2"The Mirror of Her Dreams" (book 1)"A Man Rides Through" (book 2)So with that out of the way, I will review both as a single work.There are so many cool ideas and concepts in this duology. The story in itself has a pretty good pace that chugs along evenly and with good momentum.The writing style is a

Amazing, exciting, uplifting! Donaldsons enchanting writing puts the reader into the book just as the Imagers translate people and objects into and through mirrors. His characters are fully developed and inspiring. Donaldson uses anti-heroes in this book and his Thomas Covenant, who have difficulties believing in and using their personal power, to help his readers believe in their own worth and gifts. I highly recommend both books in this two book series!

Read A Man Rides Through ages ago, back when I was still in high school and I loved it. I received it as a Christmas present from one of my closest friends. She'd also given me The Mirror Through Her Dreams as a Christmas present the year before. When I moved to Sweden, I had to leave many of my hardcover books in the US. I ended up donating both books to a local high school library. One day I was in the Science Fiction bookstore in Stockholm's Old Town and I found both books in paperback. I was

This, and the first book, were for me very painful to read. I read the first on out of curiosity, and because I cannot leave things unfinished, had to read this one. The concept of imagery was interesting, but Donaldson's presentation of it is very muddled. I could have forgiven this were it not for the many other things I disliked. Here is a quick and incomplete list:1) Donaldson loves his adverbs. Every action is modified. Nothing is done. Everything is done slowly, quickly, onerously, so and

I read the first volume of Stephen R. Donaldsons Mordants Need, the book called The Mirror of Her Dreams last year, after a false start several years ago. The concept, in its elevator pitch form, was really cool: In a fantasy a world that uses mirrors as magical implementations of summoning/transition, the masters of mirror magic see a sci-fi hero in a prophetic vision ginned up to save their world. When they go to pull this deadly armored giant from the mirror, however, they get a febrile and

Donaldson's writings are a mass of contradictions; characters you hate, but care about, descriptions and explanations that go on and on but fail to bore you... He's a writer I have an unusual love/hate relationship with because he takes the unlikeliest of heroes (the anti-hero)and drags them thru every awful thing imaginable before he lets the hero justify or redeem himself. By the end, you just want to scream in frustration over all the fumbling and stupidity you've had to suffer thru, only to

A mixed review (again)This is the second book of Mordant's Need. It is not a stand alone book. The thing that always brings me back to this story is the characters. You want greatness for them because they are not especially special. They are normal people surrounded by greatness and somehow, through mistakes and stumbles, they accomplish the greater good and discover they had greatness inside of them anyway.You definitely need to read the first book before you pick this one up. In places the
