Her Quest for the Lance

Seasons of Time #3

by M.L. Rigdon

Medra-Xur is haunted by a relentless call to restore Chi, her nation's capitol, and the resurrection of its abandoned Temple. She hides an even greater yearning for the one man in Omirr she cannot have, the priest, her childhood friend, Gryff of Sha. Born into a family gifted with extraordinary talents, Medra must hide the fact that she has none-only a fierce intelligence, physical beauty, courage in combat-and an unintentional penchant for making others angry. Her road to Chi's restoration is paved with heartache, disappointment, and obstacles laid by a devious enemy, but Medra will not stop, even though her goal of restoring the Temple in Chi means an end to her most secret dream-to gain the love and respect of a man she can never have.

About the author

M.L.Rigdon grew up in historic Galena, IL, and spent most of her time in the museum of her aunt, who encouraged her interest in history and understood the need to cherish a dream. She started writing in her teens and never stopped, merging it with her mother's encouragement to study theatre and music, which led to performing in the Midwest, California, and as far away as Austria. Her favorite genre is fantasy, but since she loves reading everything, Rigdon also writes contemporary, romance, and YA fantasy.

Great end to an amazing series

I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of this great series. So well written, the characters come to life. You will not regret the time spent reading them. Money well spent.

The world of Omir, created by author ML Rigdon, with charges, fflorins, and characters who possess mysterious healing and killing powers will give readers of fantasy a creative and mental romp. Medra-Xur, the main characters, is the overwrought daughter of the Lord Protector of the realm, and she and her brother Lorin and other comrades and friends meet and fight off creatures as dreadful and slimy and as cruel as one can imagine. Her quest has to do with more than finding a magic lance. She wants to find her own powers; she wants to revive a Temple which will assure the Kingdom; and she wants to reunite her family. Alas, she is also aware her actions may destroy any love relation she might have with a character named Gryff. There is, in this story, the use of invisibility which may remind some readers of tht grinning Cheshire cat in Alice’s wonderland.
