In
the third book of The Dark Water Saga by Patrick Carr, the
kings and queens of the northern continent lay siege to the Darkwater
Forest, frantic to contain its evil. But rumors of gold and aurium
have lured deserters and the reckless into its shadow, creating a
growing army that can see in the dark and fight like the gifted.
Desperate after the death and dissolution of their greatest ally,
Willet and the rest of the Vigil seek the truth of what lies at the
heart of the evil they face. They delve the mind of an ancient enemy
and find an answer far worse and more unimaginable than they had
feared. But while they seek to understand their past and peril,
danger stalks the cities of the north striking at the rulers of the
kingdoms. As Willet and the rest of the Vigil search for answers, the
Vigil is scattered with an ever-growing darkness around them. They
must discover a path to keep their land safe or risk losing the
world.
Having
read the first two books in this series, I was eager to get my hands
on the next one. I have read all of Patrick Carr books and I love
them. The worlds he builds are interesting and unique, but not too
far out there. The characters are complex and interesting. They are
just an interesting and fun read, a great escape from the never
ending Canadian winter. I like how the female characters are
portrayed as strong and independent people who can hold their own in
this fantastical world. If you at all like fantasy, or want to give a
it a try, I highly recommend this series.
I
was given an copy of this book through Bethany House Publishers and
Netgalley in exchange for me review. All opinions are my own.
