But there is a curse on anyone who lifts the sword for conquest. King Kareed of Archeld goes after this sword anyway, winning it from the King of Bellandra. When he returns home from battle, he brings his daughter, Princess Torina, two special gifts. One is a unique crystal, in which she can view visions of the future. The other gift is the defeated king’s son Landen, who is to be her slave. Torina immediately releases Landen, who becomes a member of the King’s army and her close friend. But trouble is lurking in the kingdom of Archeld and people are accusing Landen of plotting against the King. Torina refuses to believe he would hurt her family. Then Torina begins seeing deadly visions in her crystal. Can she save her father’s life and the future of her kingdom? Average Rating:
 Rating:  - The Fantasy You've Been Looking ForI recently picked up The Seer and the Sword, and couldn't put it down. I'd been looking for a good book, that would pull me in and keep me hooked, and this book more than fit the bill. The characters are unique and well-wrought. The dilemmas they face are extremely compelling. The personality clashes are entertaining and realistic. And the plot is full of twists and intrigue. But more than any of that, what I like about this book is that it works on many levels. This isn't simply a fantasy/adventure ... Read More Rating: - Wonderful StoryGreat book I say... I was wrapped in the feelings and I have to say they were Joyful feelings! Gorsh, I love it when It reading Makes Feelings! So Read the book, for it is not a long one.... and feel man! ~aLiShA~ Rating:  - Not Long Enough!I loved this book. I was trying to find things that were quick and easy to read before my next term of classes start and I saw this book and read the description. I was unsure of whether or not I would like it, but I am really glad that I did! It captured my attention with the first page. It was a really good story. Some parts of it were predictable, but you get that with a lot of books now. The characters could have been more developed and the love between them seems to just spring up out of nowhere. ... Read More Rating:  - Not the greatestI found this book very disappointing. The characters are flat and not fully developed, and the book is very predictible. The plot is okay--it is a good story, but the telling of it could have been executed better. This book is definitely not a must-read, there are far better books to spend your time reading. Rating: - Great Book!I read this book when I was fifteen. It was perfect for someone my age. I could really relate to the characters.
