This is, as far as I can tell, the first full length novel about Erevis Cale, and the second book (of seven) in the Sembia series of novels set in the Forgotten Realms. Put simply, this is the story of Cale and his friend Jak Fleet and their struggle against some kind of shadow demon. The book has a solid story with a limited scope. (No grand kingdoms or politics here.) That smaller scope does allow for more character development than seems normal in these fantasy adventure books, which is aI love Jak but I'm not a huge Cale fan just yet but that's why there is more books to read. I have faith in Kemp's work
Another good one from the world of FR. I've been meaning to read this book(series) for about 4 years, as I read through the first novel in the series back then. But just kept putting it off. I'm glad I finally pulled this on off the bookself, because I really enjoyed it.One of my favorite things was the pace.

Shadows Witness by Paul S. Kemp is the second book of the Sembia: Gateway to the Realms series. It follows the events of Resurrection by Paul S.

Along the path of revenge, Cale goes up against demons, Harpiers, and the struggle to except a god.Negatives:1) Wounds and Damage. The thing that really bugged me about the
Not great, not bad. The Cale stories get better the farther in to the series, in my experience. I read this as the start of my "holy crap I have to catch up on everything Erevis Cale has done before I read the Godbord" reading marathon, but sadly the marathon ground to a halt when I wasn't fully engrossed in this story.
Erevis Cale is by far my favorite character in the all the Realms. This book accelerated my passion for Realms novels, and really ignited my fire into reading.
