Alas poor Kerrick, has been sent to caverns by Silya. To get him out of the way while she prepares for he Rising ceremony. Cor’Lea is with him to babysit. As Kerrick slaves away, he makes a discovery in the tunnels.
Silya needs some peace and quiet as she get’s ready to undertake the ceremony of the Raising. She would officially become Hencha Queen, the Seventh in the Royal Line. Is she really ready for the huge responsibility, as she still has the thoughts to just be normal again. With her ceremony she receives a mysterious Black Staff. She’s also has mixed thoughts about her annoying mother, Tri’Aya.
Tri’Aya has discovered her urses have been stolen. Her caravan, with the odd skull, will head to the Highlands, following Aik and Desla. What will they find along the way?
Chala still feels like a loner at Mountainhome. They haven’t made a connection with a verent. Their still accepting of the role she plays at Mountainhome. Will things ever change? Will she help Astrid?
Raven Orn/Breeze and Jai/Angel spy someone watching them. They meet this new person and it leads them back to Gullton. Raven has hopes that Aik is there. Will returning be a mistake? What awaits him at Gullton? What will people of Gullton make of the verents?
Everyone is on a journey where will they wind up? One thing for sure, with:
earthquakes, glowing red creatures, and white blisters covering the land the war has arrived. All everyone knows for sure, if they cannot end the war, their world and themselves will no longer exist.
I commend J. Scott Coatsworth for the third book “The Hencha Queen” in “The Tharassas Cycle” series. I haven’t even scratched the surface with this review. There is so much going on surrounding Silya and her becoming Hencha Queen. With every step of the way there’s: adventure, excitement, suspense, drama, terror, danger and even romance. It’s power packed with secrets and surprises that are revealed. Many of the characters reveal their pasts with flashbacks.
Not only is “The Hencha Queen” filled with colorful descriptions of this strange world but the authors creative talent also shines with all the variety of names with: old and new characters, verents and the odd plant life and creatures.
I think what’s important about “The Hencha Queen” is all the characters will have to accept change, new people and those from their pasts and where their futures will lead. They will all have to find a way to work together and exist.
I highly recommend “The Hencha Queen” book three of “The Tharassas Cycle,” it’s an intense read and I couldn’t put it down. If you’re curious the first book is “Raven” to start the series. J. Scott Coatsworth is not done yet! Watch for the fourth installment in “The Tharassas” Cycle,” “The Death Bringer.” I have to mention how amazing the covers on the first two books were, but Kelley York of Sleepy Fox Studio, did an outstanding and beautiful illustration of Silya!
