Loyal to D&D MechanicsI've read several official D&D novels and this is the only one that felt like it could have taken place in game. The author wove a compelling tail within the constraints of D&D rules. I concede that this is not important to most readers but I want to give the author credit where credit is due. She didn't just write a fantasy book reskinned as D&D; she wrote a D&D book. I only have 4 stars because I found Greddark entirely unlikeable and cheered against him the entire time.
It's a mixed okay; I liked a lot of this but it was a not-infrequently frustrating read. The prose is mostly pretty good and then you get non sequiturs, nonsensical dialogue or actions, or internal character thoughts that left me exasperatedly wondering "what the heck are you trying to say here?".
I feel the lore and feel of Oberon takes a bit if learning and slightly distracts from the story but the plot (well, I figured out who the baddie was early on) that led to who the baddie was was pretty good. Nicely written.
4.5 starsThis murder mystery set in the Eberron realm has all the plot aspects of a good pulp detective novel, combined with all of the fantasy elements of dungeons and dragons. The setting is dark, the violence gritty, and the characters tough. The rag-tag trio of characters Irulan, Greddark and Andri use their skills as shifter, inquisitive and paladin to stumble their way to uncover the truth. Though their individual secrets and motives sometimes conflict, making their path to solving the mur...
Why I love ebooks: you go to a Con and you meet an author. You really enjoy meeting the author and want to buy her/his books. But you and the author are sad, because the publisher doesn't keep books in print for very long. But wait! Because of this wondrous new technology, publishers will make the book available as an ebook! Hurray! Author and reader are both happy! Yes, this is exactly what happened to me. And yes, I was a happy reader. Even if you're not a D&D player, or if you've never played...
It was a good story. Full of shifters and werewolves. Was nice to see an Eberron book that didn't have a warforged as a main character, or even part of the group. It is nice to see them in ths world, but there are others that you can write about. A mystery started with a rash of killings being done by shifters. At least that is what the church wants you to believe. One of the victims that got away hired a dwarven inquisative to look into it. Meanwhile a Paladin of the flame, and Irulan; a shifte...
An engrossing fantasy detective story (I especially liked Greddark, the Sherlock-Holmes-meets-James-Bond dwarf).

Another excellent addition to the Inquisitive series (each book in the series is a stand alone). Legacy of Wolves is a mixture of mystery novel and good old fashioned adventure (with a little bit of political intrigue mixed in) all set in the fantasy world of Eberron.The characters are all interesting and well-written. They are given interesting back stories that made them multidimential characters. You truly begin to care about these character. But they are not ruled by their back stories. Inst...

A very fun little mystery. I had zero familiarity with the Eberron world, but the author did a nice job of putting background in without bashing me over the head with it. I liked the characters very much, especially the grumpy dwarf inquisitive. ;-)
