I remember reading this series at school when I was either 12 or 13 and at the time I wasn't that keen on them. I guess at that age nobody wants to be seen. My friend ended up passing this series onto me when she moved house at the beggining of the summer as she didn't want them any more.

So I ended up rereading and enjoying the whole series. It had a likeable and easy to follow plot and a few likeable characters.

Book Description
Five years have passed. The city of Aramanth has become kinder – weaker. When ruthless soldiers of the Mastery strike, the city is burned, and the Manth people taken into slavery. Kestrel is left, separated from her brother Bowman, and vowing revenge . . .

***Please Note***
When re-releasing this book please be aware that airports are not a good place to leave books unless they have a specific book exchange shelf or area, due to security problems, so they may well just be disposed of. Also charity shops may well discard books that have been labelled in any way and they mostly chose only the books in the very best condition
to place on their shelves and discard the rest-so another bad release option.

Received this week as a RABCK from Abi-Gibby, really looking forward to reading the trilogy!

Just as enjoyable as the first in the trilogy, loved the character of Sisi and how she developed through the story, and also Mumpo and how he found something to excel at, albeit questionable as to whether it's really something to be proud of.

I'm quite suprised how much violence there is in the books given that they are aimed at children, but it does create a sense of added peril for the characters when you genuinely feel their lives are at risk.

Really looking forward to reading the last one!
