Summary

The second novel of a major Feist acquisition, returning to his best-loved series. Written with Joel Rosenberg.

The second Riftwar collaboration, Murder in LaMut, written by masters of fantasy Raymond E. Feist and Joel Rosenburg.

The heavy action was supposedly at Crydee these days, which meant that the one place they could be sure the three of them were not going was Crydee. Come spring, the privateer Melanie was due in Ylith, and its captain could be counted on for a swift conveyance away for sure, and likely not to murder them in their sleep. That would be bad for business.

But away where? That wasn't Durine's worry. Kethol would surely be able to find the three of them somebody who needed men who knew which part of the sword you used to cut with and which part you used to butter your bread, and Pirojil would be able to negotiate a price at least half again what the employer was ready to pay. All Durine would have to do was kill people.

That was fine with him. Durine, Kethol, and Pirojil are three mercenaries who have spent twenty years fighting other people's battles against the Tsurani and the Bugs and the goblins, and now it seems they've run out of Tsurani, Bugs and goblins to kill. The prospect of a few months of garrison duty offers a welcome respite; but then they are given an assignment that seems, on the surface, like cushy work - to protect a lady and her husband and deliver them safely to the city of Lamut. It should have all been so simple....

Raymond E. Feist is the author of the best-selling and critically acclaimed Riftwar Saga, the Serpentwar Saga, and the epic Krondor series.

Joel Rosenberg is best known for The Guardian of the Flame sequence. His other fantasy work includes the D'Shai novels and the Keeper of the Hidden Ways series.

Can’t believe this is a Feist book

Boring and very slow
All his other books enjoyable can only assume he had no editorial control

Good grief what a struggle that was

I’m reading/listening my way through the Raymond W Feist series. Honoured Enemy was just about okay but had some serious homoerotic vibes going on. Murder in Lamut was just painful to get though.
A collection of characters I couldn’t care less about. A plot seemingly invented by a 7 year old and embarrassingly bad twists and turns.
I will thankfully never read this dirge again, unlike the riftwar and serpentwar sagas which I have read multiple times over the years.
Do yourself a favour and skip this one altogether.

Very average

Not an engaging story , too much talk and little action. Not up to the usual Feist standard.

A bit slow

Compared to the other books from the same writer, this book seemed A bit slow, narrator might have some to do with that.

Simple murder mystery. Not much Midkemia.

Big fan of the world of Faist. This book had very little of that. The book is basically a murder mystery set in the world of Midkemia.
