The New York Times best-selling author revisits his signature world of Midkemia in this first title in a new trilogy that ushers in the third, and most dramatic, Riftwar yet: the Darkwar.
Flight of Nighthawks picks up two years after Exile's Return as Pug, the powerful sorcerer, awakens from a nightmare that portends destruction for all of Midkemia. Disturbed by his dream, Pug calls for a convening of the Conclave of Shadows.
Meanwhile, in a small town on the other side of Midkemia, two young brothers are coming of age. As they travel away from home, toward apprenticeships and adulthood, the boys are attacked by bandits and mistakenly transported to Sorcerer's Isle, the home of the Conclave of Shadows.
Though they are untrained and unready, the brothers will join the powerful, mysterious Conclave to confront Midkemia's most looming evil yet - the Nighthawks, assassins feared throughout the centuries. And Pug will face his old nemesis, the evil wizard formerly known as Sidi, now Leso Varen, in a confrontation with everything at stake: his honor, his life, and the future of Midkemia.

Ultimately, this story is a pale imitation of much better books that Feist wrote earlier in his career, especially Prince of the Blood, the first grand adventure into Great Kesh. The boys, Tad and Zane, are the least interesting and most poorly developed pair of best friend/brothers that Feist has introduced yet. The recycling of old locations and old villains also really makes it hard to gear up for a "new" series.
I'm going to keep going, in part because I became invested in the original characters almost three decades ago and because the earlier books of Midkemia and Kelewan that Feist produced in the 80's and 90's still hold a special place for me. I hear they do get better toward the end, and I dearly hope so.
A most disappointing book from Feist
