One of whom is Emperor Kostan. A young man who is completely new to the throne. He is trying to undo years of hardship and oppression which has been inflicted upon his people by previous Emperors. What do the terrifying visions that he has been having, mean? Where have these loathsome savage creatures that are killing his people, come from? And what do they want?
There is a strangely gifted girl, Savra Padmi. Her very life is on the line for an act that she believed with all her heart to be correct. Will she be able to prove that she acted wisely, or will her well meant actions seal her fate? Held by her people, awaiting the final judgement against her by the elders; she waits; seeking to make sense of what is happening to her.
And what is the purpose of the very elderly man who wanders the land, seeking a red haired girl?
This story is full of intrigue, twists and turns. Yet it is also full of honesty and a strong compassion for others. I like that in a book.
I found myself engrossed in its pages as the story pulled me along, and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
The quality of writing was superb and the plot was really gripping. Plus the characters were well written and likeable or dislikable according to the authors design for them.
However, I feel that the quality of the dialogue is quite flat, which was a real shame. This doesn't detract from the book as a whole though.
The only other thing I disliked about it was the way it meandered along and took a long time to get anywhere. It just didn't get on with the story.
This book is very much like the first book in the series. With the same rolling plot and captivating characters but this books dialogue is smewhat flat and a bit dull.
Apart from those details, it was a very good read.
