Book Reviews of Chronicles of Ancient Darkness #3: Soul Eater
Book Review: Torak's story grows darker and even more fascinating
Summary: 5 Stars
As I slowly make my way through "The Chronicles of Ancient Darkness", I continually wait for the story to run its power and then flop. It has not happened yet, and with a six-book strategy, I don't think it ever will. And that makes this prehistoric epic so wonderfully fascinating and a heart-pounding adventure.
For the first time, the whispers of the Soul Eaters become real, fleshed-out, and utterly horrific characters as we are shown their natures and their goal. It's evil, it's twisted, and it makes for a darn good read.
Paver's prehistoric world continues to amaze with her fluid writing and spot-on description. She gives the ice-covered land of the Far North a haunting and beautiful aura that makes one yearn for that day of thousands of years ago. It's a strange comparison--the dark twists of the story's plot versus the praise of the natural world. Could that be Paver's secret for why this series is so addicting?
Anyway, I loved it and I can't wait to get my hands on the next.
Summary of Chronicles of Ancient Darkness #3: Soul Eater
It's winter, and Wolf, Torak's beloved pack-brother, has been captured by an unknown foe. In a desperate bid to rescue him, Torak and Renn must brave the frozen wilderness of the Far North.
As they battle for survival amid howling blizzards and the ever-present menace of the great white bear, their friendship is tested to the breaking point, and Torak is forced to get closer to his enemies than ever before. . . .
Soul Eater is a haunting story of loyalty and loss, a chilling portrayal of the nature of evil, and the next step in the perilous journey that began with Wolf Brother and Spirit Walker.
