A Darkness Returns.

Looks like it will be released in August. First in a new series, Dragonwar saga.
Will be a return to Midkemia and will tie in the Firemane Saga.

I have to admit my first reaction to that was unprintable. I was happy to have read all of the Midkemia books and happy to have read all the Feist I wanted. Now I must picked which one I'm going with...

How did you find Firemane?

I enjoyed Firemane, it was a bit generic, Feist does like his assassins and thieves. The female characters are more rounded.
In previous books the only female of any substance was Mara, mainly I think was due to Janny Wurts.

His solo works rarely paid that much attention to women its true, although I think characters like Miranda and Carline were good interesting characters.

I tried a bit of the second Firemane and was... I dunno, it was fine, it just wasn't doing anything for me. I might revisit.

I think this has helped prompt me. I'm gonna reread all the Midkemia - I'm halfway through already - then his new stuff - then this.
