Publisher Description

Four years have passed since Rafel disappeared in the expedition over the mountains. Deenie, now 18, starts having disturbing dreams about her brother. She comes to believe he's not dead after all, but is in trouble and needs her help.

She enlists the aid of her cousin Randa and the girls hatch a plan to escape from Lur. They escape and survive the hazardous journey round the coastline past the mountains. To their dismay they discover that the lands beyond Lur are blighted with lawlessness and chaos. The remnant of Morg's consciousness that survived his death splintered at his downfall and sought refuge in whatever bodies could be found to host them.

Throughout their travels and adventures they get some answers about the other lost expeditions, and keep hearing about one fearsome mage who's slowly but surely gaining the upper hand from his stronghold in the blighted near-mythical land of Dorana. Deenie knows this is her brother - that Rafel's not only in danger, he's become dangerous. If he's not stopped he could become a threat to the whole world. Perhaps even another Morg.

"I really enjoyed this book, the growth of the characters, how each of them had to step outside their comfort zone in order to do what needs to be done. Especially Deenie, how she had to accept the darkness in her and use that towards the right purpose in order to achieve what is necessary!"

    " Not bad. I feel like the pacing wasn't as good with this one as with the others, and the main romantic plot line didn't evoke any emotion in me. It's a decent finish to the previous book, but perhaps this well has run dry. "

    " The great evil FINALLY gets whats coming to him in this 7th of the series. Decent story line although I find the attempt to make the language culturally unique a little annoying with the cute swear words. "

    " I thought there was a third book in this series for some reason, so I read through this one assuming it wasn't the end. I may need to reread the series to get a better sense of it, because I was pretty disoriented at the end. "

    " What a rollercoaster. The book continues straight on from the events of Prodigal and Miller has written the most brilliant sequel. Loved this book, where Prodigal lays the ground work Reluctant pays off in spades! "

    " Book #131 for the 2010 52 Books in 52 Week Ravelry Challenge.I stopped reading this on page 252, due to the fact that I had started reading this book in mid series. I was totally lost. The author kept referring to previous books. I may start reading this series from the beginning. "

    " Reasonable book - a nice intro back into the world left behind by Asher - but really, that's all it was. An intro. Nothing that interesting actually happened. It set the scene well for the next book, but really in that long a book, i'd have liked a bit more action. "
