The adventure continues in this third book in the New York Times bestselling series.
Erdas is a land of balance. A rare link, the spirit animal bond, bridges the human and animal worlds. Conor, Abeke, Meilin, and Rollan each have this gift-and the grave responsibility that comes with it.
But the Conquerors are trying to destroy this balance. They're swallowing whole cities in their rush for power-including Meilin's home. Fed up with waiting and ready to fight, Meilin has set off into enemy territory with her spirit animal, a panda named Jhi. Her friends aren't far behind . . . but they're not the only ones.
The enemy is everywhere.

Gr 3–7—This third book in the series (after Maggie Stiefvater's Hunted) jumps right into the action. Meilin and her spirit panda, Jhi, are trapped and starving in a bamboo maze while her erstwhile companions Conor (Spirit wolf Briggan), Abeke (Spirit leopard Uraza), and Rollan (Spirit falcon Essix) are sailing into enemy territory. Determined to defeat the Destroyer and his army of Conquerors, the team reunites to survive leeches, spiders, stinging ants, poisoned arrows shot by rhino riders, giant crocodiles, and even the Sunset Death to acquire the talisman of Dinesh the Elephant. Our heroes win the battle, but there's more to come in this war of good against evil in the four titles planned through 2015. Nicola Butler relates the story in a variety of expressive British accents, with each character differentiated by tone. The nonstop action, ever-present danger, and narrow escapes will appeal to fantasy lovers, especially veterans of" The "39 Clues" and "Infinity Ring" series.—Toby Rajput, National Louis University, Skokie, IL
