Brief synopsis (no spoilers):
Lord Rafel's people make it to a secluded valley that they can fortify and live in. Carol grows in her powers and is reunited with Arn. Arn gives Carol a spell book that might be too much for Carol to handle.
Category:
Fiction, fantasy, possibly YA
Why I chose this book:
Next in the series
My personal opinion:
Excellent book in an excellent series. It ends a bit abruptly, and it is clearly incomplete without the next book, but that's typical. I recommend the book to anyone.

Excellent
