The Paladins Omnibus

These books start "merely" good, then grow better and attain true excellence in the last one. Paladins, in general, aren't my cup of tea, but somehow Dalglish have made awesome, interesting, living characters out of the "holier than thou" stereotypes. Would given a 4, but for the last book which lifts the whole to a 5 (but the preceding ones would probably be necessary reading to get the full worth of the last). I so hate it when a series end at a weak note, but here it ends at its highest.

I also played the interactive novel. This man is a treasure. These tomes at their brightest or darkest are master pieces painting the truth of humanity as well as anything ever written. I will need time to meditate and process much of what I experienced... it was like living many lifetimes at once... it is creative fire like this that guides souls to this plane. Terrible and beautiful at the same time. Divinely inspired. If the universe has guided you here you will undoubtedly be more human after this experience.

This series was definitely an emotional roller coaster for me. Once I would start reading I couldn't stop reading. I loved the Paladins series. I was very upset with the ending of book 4. Not because I didn't like it but because I wanted more and the ending went in a direction I was hoping it wouldn't go to. I hope one day there can be a way Jerico and Darius can continue on with another series. Hopefully a longer series at that. But for now I'm gonna read the half orc series since from what I understand that's basically a continuation from the paladin series.
