Customer Reviews

Lots of Action!

I enjoyed this quite a bit! I was really interested in learning more abou the Tha'alani and I would have loved to have learned even more... The plot was solid, but all in all, it wasn't as exciting as the two previous novels in the series. And the characters arcs are REALLY dragging... I want to find out more about Nightshade. And I want Kaylin to at least kiss someone!!! I hope the next one has more development in the relationships in the book... and I guess I am hoping that the next book has less action and more romance!

Excellent Book

I have enjoyed every book in this series and I cannot wait for the next one.

Great Series!

This latest installment of Hawk Kaylin Naya's adventures from Michelle Sagara was on par with the first two in the series. I look forward to the next book.

The Chronicles of Elantra

I have enjoyed the previous two books in this series and this one is just as good. Each book reveals abit more about Kaylin Neya and her place in this world. I love the world and it's inhabitants and this novel tells us of a different species on this world. The Barrani, the Dragons, Hawks and the rest are joined by the Tha'alani mysterious beings with great mental abilities. Kaylin is an orphan raised on the streets by Severn Handred and later joins the Hawks. She is also connected to Nightshade, a exiled Barrani Sorceror. She hates magic but somehow always seems to fall into it. Her abilites make her a blessing to the mid-wives and she is called on many time to help with births. She wears a magic braclet from the Dragon Emperor which inhibits her magic use. Her body is covered with glyphs and she has various and unknown magic abilities. Severn Handred saved Kaylin from the streets and the ferals when she was young. He has always looked out for her even when she did not know he was there. Now he is her partner in the Hawks and always there to help her face the unknown. This time Kaylin and Severn are facing a great unknown that threatens to demolish their world or at least the city and country they occupy. The world of magic is based on the elementals of fire, water, earth and air. Now Kaylin must match powers with an evil sorceror from the Arcanium. A sorceror who can control the elements and maybe the elementals. Kaylin never one to look before she leaps finds herself in very deep water. I loved this book and can't wait for the next one. Michelle Sagara has a wonderful immagination and only she knows where we will end up next. Do not miss this one.

Excellent series...

Great read, I truly enjoyed this 3rd installment of her exciting romantic fantasy. My only quibble is with how little transition is in this book. I can't lend Cast in Secret to any friends who aren't willing to first read the first two excellent books in this series. A little added background introducing the characters and previous plots could have made this a strong stand alone novel. When I buy a book -- I want a beginning and an end. Looking fwd to reading book 4!
