hey, i think I read that, but it was several years ago...did it have a guy that could "see" from every part of his body in it? He had fake eyes or something so that no one could tell he used magic in his knife throwing act...

It does have a sequel. Its called "Master of Fiends." It was published in 1988.

I made a post about this a while back...

I'd read the books as a child and couldn't remeber the names, so I posted a rough outline and a request for help.

From what I remember they where pretty good books, sadly they are out of print and I have been unable to find a copy since then.

There where two books - Blade of the Poisoner and Master of Fiends.

Can't remember that much about them, but there was the "farm boy" like character, the cool knife throwing blind guy with black eyes, a princess or rich girl (can't remember which but she was posh!).

Would love to be able to read them again as they where some of the first fantasy books I'd read.

I realize this thread is insanely old, but as it shows up in google when searching for the book, i thought I would let people know you can find copies for pennies.
