The landscape has shifted: Michael has become part of the group that wants to capture Gabriel, and thanks to advanced surveillance technology there are few places for them to hide. While he is recuperating and staying in the shadows in New York City, a shocking piece of information trickles back to Gabriel concerning his and Michael's father. A Traveler who was believed to be dead for nearly twenty years, Gabriel hears, may still be alive and trapped somewhere across the globe. Gabriel, Maya, Hollis and Vicki must plan their escape from New York as well as their path to Gabriel's father, who has the ability to revive the failing Traveler movement. But Michael and his group of Tabula mercenaries are equally motivated to find both Gabriel and their father - for both represent an obstacle to Michael's unchallenged power.<br><br><b>The Dark River</b> is a scintillating novel that, like <b>The Traveler</b>, is deeply and richly drawn, showcasing a superb and original voice. 2652453 book 10 7 2007 The Dark River (Fourth Realm Trilogy 2) total:903|5:188|4:362|3:282|2:58|1:13| 903 3363 1271 155 3 2 false false Sun Jul 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Thu Aug 02 10:24:05 -0700 2007 Fri Aug 17 16:08:00 -0700 2007 more...]]> 3 2 false false Wed Aug 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Fri Nov 02 10:17:58 -0700 2007 Thu Mar 06 23:17:33 -0800 2008 more...]]> 4 1 false false Sun May 11 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Wed Apr 15 08:54:07 -0700 2009 Wed Apr 15 08:55:35 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 1 false false Thu May 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Tue May 13 10:39:53 -0700 2008 Tue May 13 10:43:58 -0700 2008 more...]]> 0 0 false false Fri Oct 02 09:53:30 -0700 2009 Fri Oct 02 09:53:30 -0700 2009 more...]]> 2 0 false false Fri Jul 17 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Fri Jul 24 19:14:58 -0700 2009 Fri Jul 24 19:19:13 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 1 false false Wed Aug 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Sat Aug 04 03:30:52 -0700 2007 Sun Aug 05 17:59:33 -0700 2007 The Traveler and was not disappointed by the way The Dark River continued the story.
