One more thing before I end my longest ever post....what was the point in the Quor?
The being that Tomas & Pug imprisoned in the City Forever (or whatever it is called) was a Dreadmaster. Tomas himself says that even the Valheru would be worried about going up against a Dreadlord. There is a Dreadlord at the end of the Darkness in Sethanon - it is he who fights and kills the dragon Ryana. So this Dasati Dark God which has been fed so much would surely be way outside the possibilities of Tomas & Pug to beat. In fact he had already devastated two realms and clearly the gods of Midkemia were worried about him.

As for the Quor, it was a completely odd addition I agree. Indeed the whole scene there was weird with the ship arriving with the magician & dark creature (whatever it was). My suspicion is that this is a prelude to the next series, and not very related to what we have seen.

Otherwise I agree with most of your points about the book although it did bring several issues properly to an end, which was more satisfying than the book really deserved
