Publisher Summary
 

In The Green Pearl, King Aillas of Troicinet defends the peace of the Elder Isles against both the Ska marauders who once enslaved him and the wicked King Casmir. While organizing the unruly barons in the frontiers of his land, Aillas goes out of his way to capture the lovely Ska noblewoman who once stung him with her disregard. When he gets separated from his men, his dream of forcing the lady's recognition becomes the toil of dragging a defiant captive across lands governed by Casmir's henchmen. Meanwhile, the world of magic has gone on the move. The concentrated malice of the witch Desmëi has manifested as a green pearl, breeding lust and envy and death; and a sorcerer in Casmir's employ abducts the princess Glyneth, in a bid to draw Aillas and friends on a hopeless rescue mission across a bizarre and deadly alternate world.

A masterpiece of romantic, picaresque adventure, The Green Pearl extends the epic founded with Lyonesse: Suldrun's Garden and concluded in the World Fantasy Award-winning Madouc

I enjoyed this one more than Suldrun's Garden, maybe because it concentrated more on characters that I liked and felt invested in than the first book.

Review by Anthony Haden from Ringwood, NJ | 12/4/2009

The continuation of an overly dull, overly wordy, and overly action-less tale of boredom. Got mildly interesting near the end when in the alternate universe/dimension of Tanjecterly (sp?). Absolutely no momentum or story arc of any kind.
