Fletcher and his
classmates have rescued his mother, Lady Alice, but they are stuck in the
ether. Not only are they surrounded by
enemy demons, but if they don’t find a source of the petals that protect them
from the deadly effects of the ether death is inevitable. Should they fight their way out, they will
still have to contend with their human enemies in Hominum and find a way to
carve out a home with adversaries on every side.
Teen fans of epic
fighting fantasy will not be disappointed.
While it doesn’t have as much structure as Robert Jordan or Terry
Brooks, it’s a great next series for John Flanagan or Joseph Delaney fans. Lots of raging battle scenes with imminent
destruction and little bit of story to hold it all together.
