The Tenth Power

The powers of magic that Calwyn discovered in the first two books of the trilogy of the Chanters of Tremaris are now lost to her. She returns home to Antaris unhappy and discouraged, only to find an epidemic in full force. When the high priestess entrusts her with the secret of the tenth power, Calwyn realizes she must find a way to preserve it. Lina Patel renders a clear and sympathetic narration, drawing out the emotions of her characters with a light touch. She provides variety in the voices of the main characters through the judicious use of accents. Her pace is steady and well measured. This is a good choice for family listening. J.E.M.
