Fans of epic adventure will love the life-or-death stakes in the third Gods and Warriors book
The eruption of the volcano has shrouded the sun in ash, and the harsh winter is never-ending. With no trace of his lost sister to be found, Hylas takes ship for Keftiu, to find Pirra and free her from captivity.
But the Crows are also coming to Keftiu, led by the power-hungry Telamon. And Telamon knows what Hylas doesn’t: that in the chaos of the volcanic eruption, Pirra took the Crows’ prophesized dagger. Aided by Havoc, the lion cub, and Echo, a falcon of the Goddess, Hylas and Pirra will face the Crows once again, in a terrifying epic battle to save the land—or destroy it.
Readers of Rick Riordan, T.A. Barron, and John Flanagan will love this exciting Bronze Age series.

      The epic Bronze Age adventure begun in Gods and Warriors (2012) continues in this third volume as two heroes must face terrible obstacles in their quest to find their loved ones. Hylas travels to the island of Keftiu in search of his friend Pirra and his lion cub, Havoc. What greets him are a people decimated by plague and a land laid to waste by ash from a nearby volcanic eruption. However, Hylas is not the naive goatherd who left his land in search of his kidnapped sister in the first book. He has fought the evil Crows, worked as a slave and been touched by a goddess. When he finally finds Pirra, she refuses to flee, claiming that as the daughter of the high priestess, it is up to her to save Keftiu. With the help of Hylas, Havoc, and her falcon, Echo, Pirra is determined to bring back the sun even if it costs her life. While the exotic setting and intriguing plot will draw adventure lovers, Pirra and Hylas' unlikely friendship and budding romance will keep them. Fierce enemies and a harsh landscape are not the only obstacles-capricious spirits have a habit of pressing through the veil at the most inopportune moments. A lush and riveting journey. (Historical fantasy. 8-12)

      Hylas and Pirra, having survived the volcanic destruction of Thalakrea, find themselves on Crete, still fighting against the Crows. This third installment continues the good-versus-evil battle scenes and the separation/reunification structure. That said, Paver's world remains interesting, and the book's mixture of Bronze Age history, mythology, action, and engaging characters will have readers wanting to turn the pages.
