In the previous book, Faolan was undoubtedly the hero of the story. In this one, Edme really steps forward as a major character. She is so unlike other MacHeaths as well as other wolves of the Beyond – cheerful and kind despite all the sorrow she suffered, and yet she is strong and brave enough to deny the rule of MacHeaths. It’s no wonder that Edme becomes my favorite character, a brave daughter of a brave mother. I also thought that the story of two more MacHeath she-wolves, Katria and Airmead, and how they found strength within themselves to break the chains of tyranny was an interesting addiction to the main plotline.We also get a much better insight into the life of the Sacred Watch. We've already known them from ‘Guardians of Ga'Hoole’ series, but there we actually see a side of them that is hidden from the other clans: how they train their new members, how they carry out their guarding duty, the friendship and companionship they share.But there’s something rotten in the lands of Beyond… And when you say ‘rotten’, it usually means ‘MacHeaths’. As you can guess, this foul clan dreams of power – and they will do anything to get it. The war between wolves and bears is about to arise, and Faolan is torn apart – a wolf brought up by a bear, he cannot even think about fighting any of them. To stop this war, two wolves set out for a quest – Faolan with his knowledge of bears and Edme with her knowledge of MacHeaths. But to do this, they have to face the most dangerous beast of the Beyond – the beast no one had faced before without losing their life or their sanity…
After I read this book, i think this was a pretty good book, this book was more interesting than I hoped it would be. The most interesting parts were when Faolan entered the sacred ring of volcanoes and learned how to do tricks, along with Edme, It was interesting how detailed the author, Katheryn Lasky described how they flew into the air and landed. Felt like I was there, doing the exact same thing. I'm looking forward to the rest of the books!
It was sooo sweet how Faolan always protect Edme. loving!! Also a great book with great details!
I really adore the characters and the plot is great for this series, can't wait to read more.
Onto the next book!
