Order of the Lily #3
Children of the Lily
What began as an uneasy peace has brought about a new era. Men no longer fight over moldy scraps, thanks to the revived Order of the Lily. Sixteen years after their rescue, the half-breeds of the Order have proved themselves to the world and earned their place in society.
However, not everyone is at peace within the Order’s walls. The children of the Lillies are bound by birth to their destiny—carrying on the bloodline to ensure the future of humanity. While most accept their life of luxury in exchange for their duties, the burden doesn’t sit well with everyone.
Unhappy children are the least of the Order’s problems.
Zaddicus, the mastermind behind the Order’s disappearance all those years ago, is still at large. His new plans threaten to blow open everything the Surfacers think they know about the world, and this time, he has children of his own.
What dangers lurk beneath the surface?

About the author
Cait Ashwood
8 books27 followersFantasy and science fiction have been my lifeblood since I was too young to stay up and watch the complete episode of Star Trek: Voyager. I have several fandoms that I follow with varying amounts of rabid foaming, but it's all in good fun most of the time. If I had to pick a favorite, The Princess Bride is right at the top, well, at least as of the writing of this bio.
Aside from writing, I am also a classically trained violinist. I have a few students I teach weekly, and I really enjoy working with them. I also crochet, play D&D with friends, and, of course, read my little heart out. I have a small menagerie I manage with my husband here at home including three dogs, two cats, and six chickens. If you ever get the opportunity to keep chickens, I highly recommend them. They're a lot more entertaining than you might expect.
Some of my favorite authors include J.R. Ward, R.A. Salvatore, Anne McCaffrey, Tad Williams, Mercedes Lackey, Jean Auel, and Sherwood Smith, to name a few.

As is evident from the title, book 3 enters firmly into the realm of—oh, pick any of your favorite young adult dystopian stories.
The pacing was better than in book 2. But I was still irked by the frequency at which the author felt it necessary to explain everything that happened in the first two books in the series. Authors, please, give us some credit. If we're reading book #3 there's a pretty good chance we've already read books #1 and #2.

Excellent continuation to a fantastic series. Be prepared for excitement, anger and a few tears along the way. Looking very forward to Cait’s next book!
