Description : The Diamond Throne is basically about a group of knights trying to save someone who had been poisoned. The victim happens to be the queen of Elenia, in a mass political plot to put her bastard cousin on the throne. As the Queen's Champion Sparhawk and his companions search for a cure, international church politics and a magic spell that kills the participant in order to sustain the Queen lend urgency to the quest. While this does follow a more traditional fantasy line of knights, wizards, and whatnot, the feel of the book and the relationships between the people make the world believable. Each character has been specifically brought to light to portray them as people, and few characters are represented as completely good or completely evil. The basic storyline is easy to follow and makes a quick read, the intricacies of each character make it interesting. The first book in the Elenium trilogy, it is about opening this world and seeing what is going on before the main story completely unfolds.
