Summary: Different but very good
Comment: Whereas the previous two books were light, funny and enlightened us on the inner-workings of Menzoberranzan and Skullport, Windwalker focusses on the intimacy between Liriel and Fyodor, Liriel coming to grips with human notions of honor and trust, and the consequences of Liriel's previous actions.
The story is intriging, with a constant sense of haste and frustration similar to the fifth Harry Potter book. The return of many characters, including a number of the 7 sisters, were expertly woven throughout. One new character, Sharlarra, an elven mage-thief, may in fact be poised for a series of her own. The ending to Windwalker is heartwrenching, but well written.
Windwalker is definitey the end the Starlight and Shadows series - there may be additional stories with Liriel in them, but they will be very different. I would recommend this book to any who have read the previous two, with the understanding that this well written book is darker in tone and different in its overall orientation and writing style.

Summary: Good Ending to the Series
Comment: I eagerly anticipated this continuation of Liriel's story and, by and large, it did not disappoint. Ms. Cunningham is a wonderful author. She has the talent of somehow writing a story you don't realize is happening. A lot happens and it doesn't feel like it.
The old characters (Shakti, Liriel, Fyodor) were great, though only the elf Sharlarra really stood out among the newbies. Ms. Cunningham did a TERRIFIC job, I thought, of filling in some continuity holes left by the transition from 2nd to 3rd edition FRCS. It's all logical and fits together.
The ending was beautiful and haunting and heart-rending. You might very well find yourself becoming a bit misty-eyed. The possibilities of more Liriel is there and I, for one, hope Wizards has the good sense to commission them.
