Summary

Joseph Colsco has survived what many would not have - cast naked on an alien planet amidst humans speaking an unknown language and with a different culture and history. Now, known to the people of Caedellium as Yozef Kolsko, he has risen out of despair to prominence and finds himself a central figure in the culmination of a struggle against an imperialist power bent on subjugation.

The clans of the Island of Caedellium must gird themselves for what is to come. If they can't unite to a degree previously unimaginable, they will fall into the bottomless abyss of lost history. Their strengths are their determination, bravery, potentially new allies, and a single man with a mysterious history. The options are simple: victory, death, enslavement.

Yozef Kolsko may have transformed from who he had been on Earth, but did the trials he has undergone produced a savior some of his adopted people see him as or is he an illusion? The crucible of fate is about to yield a final product, but is the result enough against a formidable enemy?

Spellbinding

Just a fantastic story with excellent narration. Great plot with perfect characters. Pity there are only 4 books in the series.

A perfect conclusion to the epic of Yozef

Wow! If you have managed to get through all four books of Destinys Crucible, I hope you feel as satisfied with the conclusion of Yozef's story as I am.

Detail, development, battles, tactics, diplomacy, interpersonal relationships. This series has it all! Thoroughly enjoyed the final book in Yozef's story and I look forward to seeing where Olan takes this universe next.

Also... What the hell did Carnigan do prior to book one?? I need to know!

Enjoyable but different

I enjoyed the books immensely but they didn't develop as i expected. Not really SF at all.
