I'm a Feist fan. I buy everything he writes when it comes out in hardcover. I was so happy when Magician came out last year in hardcover since all of mine are paperbacks. I'm waiting for the other two to be rereleased in hardcover.

Looks like we may have some simliar views theglenn, fellow Erikson fan...

Read everything by Feist, thought Magician is stil his best book and the Daughter Of The Empire trilogy (co-author Janny Wurts) was good value too.

I read almost all his riftwar novels. Have never quite finished the last book though. One of these days I'll get to it. He's a good writer.

Found this info about the new book

Flight of the Nighthawks
(The first book in the Darkwar series) Sep 2005

The first book in a brand new series from world-wide bestselling author of MAGICIAN, Raymond E. Feist. The Conclave of Shadows have two problems: the final destruction of Leso Varen and the neutralization of the thousands of Talnoy discovered by Nakor in Novindus. Acting as the go-between for the Conclave and the Great Ones on the world of Kelewan whilst they study the alien Talnoy, Magnus realises that creature is acting as a rift 'magnet' - attracting the same dangers as it did on Midkemia, and could easily provide a doorway for the terrible Dasati to invade and decimate Kelewan. In Novindus, whilst studying the host of Talnoy secreted away in the cave, Nakor is ambushed by a small band of bandits. Fortunately, Tomas accompanies the small Islani, and he defeats the outlaws with ease. But, one of their number fights with such ferocity that Tomas suspects him to be more than human. After several near-disastrous conflicts Kaspar, Talwin and Amafi uncover the new nest of Nighthawks plotting against the royal house of Kesh. But when they attempt to warn the Emperor, it becomes clear that many of the truebloods - nobles related by birth to the Emperor - are already Varen's slaves, both willing and unwitting. FLIGHT OF THE NIGHTHAWKS begins a brand new series from the master of fantasy, set on a grand scale; revisiting the exotic political-intrigue of Great Kesh, (touched upon in the classic Riftwar books) and carrying the reader into a dark underworld of crime and black magic.

Should have posted my thoughts on Flight of the Nighthawks sooner,but been to wrapped up in Erikson.

It's a good solid start to the new series,I loved the opening lines took me right back to Magican.The book focuses a lot on Pug's son Caleb gives you an insight on how he feels about being a non magic user growing up amongst magicans etc.We revisit Kesh and Kelewan,We meet old friends and new.
Feist may not be the greatest writer in the world,his books may be simplier and a lot less complex than others,but he spins a good yarn.He's still my favourite author
