Straken is the finale to this epic fantasy of high adventure. Grianne Ohmsford, Ard Rhys of the Druid order, is rescued from her entrapment in the "Forbidding" by her steadfast nephew Pendarrin. He was forced to overcome danger and make sacrifices at every turn while Grianne had her hands full just staying alive in a land overpopulated with the evil minions of Faerie. She is freed just in time to win her final confrontation with the traitor druid Shadea a'Ru. War between the Federation and the Freeborn, diabolic weapons of destruction, a demon loose and threatening to release all the creatures of the Forbidding make for enough mischief to occupy trolls, elves, dwarves, and humans in a classic struggle of good vs. evil. Magic, always useful in a pinch, helps the heroes only when accompanied by true motives and nimble thought. Brooks includes appealing characters, exotic settings, and a fast-paced plot filled with plenty of suspense. Paul Boehmer's mellow tone and perfect pace create a fine listening experience. Recommended for any library that holds or plans to acquire the other parts of the trilogy.-Janet Martin, FirstHealth of the Carolinas, Pinehurst, NC Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information.
