Motor cars, steel ships, photography and telephones, with Tremaine being a scientist, and yet in the midst of this is magic of a most powerful sort. I was expecting your typical medieval fantasy world, and Ms. I thoroughly enjoyed the delineation of the very prickly Tremaine and her antagonistic relationship with her father Nicholas. There was enough information scattered here and there that I was able to follow along with the adventures of Tremaine Valiard, her husband-by-chance Ilias, and the rest of their rag-tag group. Once again, I end up with the third book of a trilogy, without having read the others. The Gate Of The Gods Author: Martha Wells
