Accompanied by Prince Berrien of Thrinedor, Mol, Arien, and Fflad set out to find Orne in dangerous territory where a new sorcerer and an invincible army have arisen.
All too often the 2nd book in a series or a trilogy tends to disappoint as it either continues the first without adding any new elements or it slows down after the excitement of the first. Remarkably this one does not as it introduces some new characters like Berrian and Merani and circumstances that provide for satisfying character growth. It also pushes the narrative along in exploring more of the magic of this world. Finally, when I enjoy a book just as much on a 2nd reading many years after the first, it tells me that it’s well written and that I should make it a permanent part of my collection.
Fantastic book and series. Every book have three parts thet build on each other. They are a fast read, short and intresting stories and with a good development thrue the book-series both of the characters (whom are belivable as are their reactions) and the settings. The front cover shows bits from the book. The three book-series is intresting and one year apart and have all very various displays of settings and characters around the main characters. Donät know what do to with the ending of the series but great books and to sad they seams to have been forgotten.
a little to fast endings and without climaxes is a bit of a flaw.
