Hi,
i started reading the "Threat from the Sea" trilogy.
But i want to know :
Who are the people on the covers of the three books ?
The big shark on the third book is probably "Iakhovas", and the Half-elf, also on the cover of the 3rd book, is probably Azla, but who are the others on the covers of the 1st and the 2nd books ????
THANKS in Advice

Well, it's been a while since I read the books but here you go.
Rising Tide --> Jherek and Laaqueel.
Under Fallen Stars --> No idea, I don't remember a triton character in the trilogy , but IIRC, there was a triton in one of the stories in Realms of the deep. The monster is a Morkoth.
The Sea Devil's Eye --> Iakhovas and Azla. |

The front cover of 'Under Fallen Stars' seems to tie in with the book's prologue in which a young triton is captured and tortured by a morkoth in a pretty horrific way. It seems a little strange for two extremely incidental characters to feature on a book's cover like that, but it's still a nice piece of artwork.
Yours,

Iirc, it was also a bracer that turned into a shield when needed, wasn't it? Impressive description about it having a kind of oil on water rainbow sheen effect or something. (I'd be able to tell you for sure if I was at home, but I'm at work at the moment.)
Were there stats published for Jherek and the other characters? (I know there's second edition stats for the half-elf pirate captain in 'Pirates on the Sea of Fallen Stars', but I've not seen any for the others.) I really liked the Lathanderite paladin in the trilogy. He was nice and chilled out, which made a pleasant change from the rather stereotypical uptight and intolerant paladin you see from time to time.
Bye for now!

Issue #255 of Dragon had stat's for most of the people in those novels. :) |
For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

Cheers, Kuje!
I can't believe it, but I'm fairly sure that particular issue of 'Dragon' was up on eBay not so long ago and I passed it by.
Typical!
