loved it. it was all so so good. i love irc, hes just soo cute and the way he was always puffing up his chest at things, he was great. i think *gasp* i like saliman more than cadvan. i dont know why but hes mysterious sometimes and then hes always very kind but also down to earth and always very caring and thoughtful. i liked soron too. hem and zelika would have made a great couple. i must say it takees quite alot to make me cry but i was sobbing when soron died and almost (very very very close)) to crying at several other points.
when i get round to digging out my copy of the riddle & the gift(my books ave been packed in big boxes-15 of them at least :D- , we recently moved house) and make my boyfriend read them im going to make him read them in a different order- the gift, the crow and then the riddle because hell be all sad when hem and saliman get the letter about cadvans "death"

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!
I was so close to crying when Hem was saying that he was going to marry Zelika...aww...I wasn't close to tears,but that really upset me :(
I kinda knew Zelika was going to die....I was just not knowing when.
I liked Zelika as the story went further on. I haven't read through the whole thread, so forgive me if anyone has said this before!!! Was anyone reminded of Dernhil? Well, she didn't die in the same way, but as Hem had gotten close to her, she died??
The descriptions of the places were amazing!!! I could imagine them almost vividly in my head....so nasty. I read about 200 pages when I was supposed to be asleep so some of the information I didn't pick up, but I will be re-reading it to make sure I didn't miss anything...Irc and Saliman were so cooool, as was Nyanar...I think he is my favourite Elemental so far. :D
Over all a great read, possibly better than the others.
I wrote this out ages ago but I had to go on a different site, my dad is and idiot!!

i think everything i wanted to say about the book has been said :D. i was very chilling reading about the cur camp. Also the seige of turbansk had me fixed to the book but also deeply saddened by it.
everything was described beautifully, not that all the sceneries were beautiful but the wway it was done was perfect.

I'm in the middle of reading The Crow, and have spoilt some things by looking at spoilers on here, and flicking through the appendecies.
I'm a silly boy :)
