Suggestion coming from Tamora Pierce, My girls have loved her writings. Then suggested to be similar in the Tolkien writings. I grabbed the book and Started the series. This is the third, of four.

I was much happier with the book than with the "Riddle". This story is mainly about Maerad's Brother, Hem. He has much of this sister's attitude "can do" and follows his quest. I enjoyed the magic (white) and they added a twist with the Crow. Continued fight "good vs. evil" my adrenalin was pumping. This book doesn't let you down, I grabbed book four before I was even done.

Adventure and suspense had me holding my breath several moments. This book follows suit to give you a little more at the end according to the translations and culture, cool.
