Shadow on the Glass (1980. Corr. 2nd Printing)
Shadow on the Glass (1980. Corr. 2nd Printing) | Ian Irvine
8 posts | 6 read | 8 to read
With this stunning and original debut, Ian Irvine begins the saga of The View from the Mirror, a brilliant epic fantasy that rivals the works of Robert Jordan and J. V. Jones. Once there were three worlds, each with its own human race. Then, fleeing from out of the void came a fourth race, the Charon. Desperate, on the edge of extinction, they changed the balance between the worlds forever... The Tale of the Forbidding In ancient times the Way Between the Worlds was shattered, leaving bands of Aachim, Faellem, and Charon trapped with the old humans of Santhenar. Now Llian, a Chronicler of the Great Tales, uncovers a 3,000-year-old secret too deadly to be revealed-while Karan, a young sensitive, is compelled by honor to undertake a perilous mission. Neither can imagine they will soon meet as hunted fugitives, snared in the machinations of immortals, the vengeance of warlords, and the magics of powerful mancers. For the swelling deluge of a millennial war is rising, terrible as a tsunami, ready to cast torrents of sorcery and devastation across the land...

I love this series and any fantasy book by Ian Irvine. I even got my mum hooked on his books which says a lot as my mum never reads fantasy. This series is an epic adventure with strong female characters. There are battles, magic and suspense. With 4 books to get your teeth into what are you waiting for?

Day 23 of #Adventrecommends @emilyrose_x

It was the cover that made me puck this book up and then I was hooked! Irvine is an amazing fantasy author & I have devoured all his books now. The View from the Mirror is my favourite as that is where I discovered Irvine's fantastic story-telling. If you enjoy epic fantasy novels I highly recommend this series & all his others too

JaneyWaneyB @Andrew65 I love Ian Irvine and it all started with this series. He writes accessible epic fantasy stories with lots of strong female leads. I hope you enjoy if you get to one of his books in your very long TBR pile 😉 6y

JaneyWaneyB @Andrew65 wow my own Mountain ⛷ you'll fly through my recommendations unless you get hooked on Ian Irvine...so many series all made up of 4 books. WARNING: Reading Irvine can lead to Reading-Slump-itus 😳 6y
Andrew65 @JaneyWaneyB Warning duly noted 😂 Will have to do some research on his books. 6y

I have been meaning to reread this series for ever. It‘s time to finish the rest of Ian Irvine‘s books, but back to the beginning first, it‘s been a while.

This has to be the best series I have ever read. I love all the characters; strong female leads, complex anti-heroes, hidden villains and redeeming villains. A story that whisks you off on an adventure and introduces other worlds. I highly recommend Ian Irvine and his many series
