Into the Labyrinth

By: Margaret Weis, Tracy Hickman

Narrated by: Fajer Al-Kaisi

From his army of the undead, Xar, Lord of the Nexus, learns of the existence of the mysterious Seventh Gate. It is said that this gate grants whoever enters it the power to create worlds—or destroy them. Only Haplo knows its location—but he doesn't know he knows it. Now an ex-lover has been sent to betray Haplo and bring back his corpse. Meanwhile, the assassin Hugh the Hand is also after Haplo, wielding the Accursed Blade. With his old companion Alfred, Haplo must seek sanctuary in the Labyrinth—a deadly prison maze whose inhabitants are condemned to death.

Millennia ago a battle raged between the Sartan and the Patryn, and the Sartan sundered the world into four realms—air, fire, stone, and water—and then vanished. But now the two races have rediscovered each other through the magic of the Death Gate—and war is about to erupt anew.

More is revealed in this one

I liked how the authors pulled info from the prior books into this one and gave an update of the happenings of past characters. It seems that the heroes may finally be coming closer to their conclusion.

Not the maze you expected.

Series gets better which each book. More details are getting revealed how the world was sundered and each book is starting to create a picture. We are starting to see who the characters are for who they really are. So far this was the best book of the series and even though I have read the series before, I’m looking forward to listening to the next book. The Narrator is okay, a bit dry but not too bad.

Into the Labyrinth

Love the characters and story! I never want it to end! It brings hope for the rest of us to somehow overcome prejudice and find unity, despite the political or cultural landscape. unity
