Book Reviews of Angel-Seeker (Samaria, Book 5)
Book Review: A fully realized world
Summary: 5 Stars
For those who have enjoyed Sharon Shinn's novels of Samaria and wondered "Whatever happened to Obadiah?" the engaging Angel from "Archangel", here is the follow-up book that tells his story. It tells the tale of two people from very different cultures wanting to love each other, but encountering prohibitions and even life-threating obstacles to being together. The woman Obadiah falls in love with, Rebekah, is a Jansai. The women of this race are kept in virtual purdah and the affair between the two means a death-sentance for Rebekah should they be discovered. The portrayal of their covert affair was very affecting, much more so than the parallel story line of the "angel-seeker" that the book takes it's title from. Elizabeth comes to the keep to try to become pregnant with an Angels child, only to find herself as a person instead. I could have dispensed with Elizaeth's story altogether but it really did not dim my enjoyment of the over-all book.It was well worth the time to read it!
Summary of Angel-Seeker (Samaria, Book 5)
The award-winning author returns to Samaria in this richly romantic tale that begins where Archangel left off. In that time, the women who craved the attention of angels were known as angel-seekers, a term used with awe by some--and scorn by others.
