Abarrach, the Realm of stone. Here, on a barren world of underground caverns built around a core of molten lava, the lesser races — humans, elves, and dwarves — seem to have all died off. Here, too, what may well be the last remnants of the once powerful Sartan still struggle to survive. For Haplo and Alfred — enemies by heritage, traveling companions by necessity — Abarrach may reveal more than either dares to discover about the history of Sartan... and the future of all their descendants.
In the previous two volumes, Haplo the Patryn risked the Death Gate at his master's command to create chaos among the various peoples of the four worlds. After visiting the fire and sky worlds, Haplo journeys to the most dismal of lands, Abarrach, the Realm of Stone, and discovers that the three lesser races have all died out, leaving a world of warring Sartan.

This series is one of my all-time favorites, and this one, volume 3, is great! It is well written, full of adventure, and has excellent character development! What more could you ask for? Please read it, you won't be disappointed, and get the word out...these are great!

Margeret Weis and Tracy Hickman are incredibal authors!!! Death Gate is the 2nd series that I've read by them, and by the 3rd book I am already enthralled by this complex and new world that they have created. The characters are so well described and personified that I feel as if I actually knew them. There is never a dull moment!

This is an awesome book along with the rest of the death gate cycle series. The characters are so well written that it draws you into the plots as if you were actually there.

This book is great and interesting. It's also dark and kinda sad and the story draws you in like the other books makes you keep reading so you would know the conclusion.

Okay, a warning first, if you like horror, get this book! If you don't like horror, GET THIS BOOK!!!! This is the third in the series and is the best book yet (I am on #5 at the moment)! I was unable to put it down....you are drawn into the sadness of the beginning of a beautiful people forced into necromancy by dire circumstances and by the end I guarentee you will be holding your breath! I know I did! GET IT!!!!

This book has Haplo actualy felling sorry for the Sartan. Haplo is evil on the outside and has a will of stone but the Sartan know as Alfred is acutaly starting to make an impression on Haplo. It also tells you what happened to Bane when that tree fell. All in All this is the best book so far out of the series that I read.
