Summary: Absolutely Thrilling, couldn't put it down
Comment: Hey! i loved this book! When i bought it, i couldn't stop reading it! i lent it to my friend and she and i can't stop talking about it. The book is the second book of a Trilogy, called The Wind on Fire. Throughout this book, as well as the first one, we follow twins Bowman and Kestrel, who are as similar as they are differet. They are very close. At the begining of this book, The Mastery invades Armamanth destroying the city and enslaving it's people. Kestrel avoides this capturing and watches as her family is led off with the rest. She leaves her city still burning, and follows as the Mastery leads her people away. She vows to follow them and avenge the death of so many of her people, so she follows as they march. She eventually finds a caravan of people going to the Mastery to wed their princess to the Master's son. The book takes you back and forth through the eyes of both Bowman the slave and Kestrel the avenger, and tells their tales. It is a very good read, i recomend it! It is amazing how close Bowman and Kestrel remain throughout their seperation. they both long for each other in such a way it's amazing. I love the characters and the faith they heve in eachother. Just an overall good read!

Summary: what a great book!
Comment: this is a really, REALLY fabulous book! it's soooooo much better than the first.
kestrel and bowman are all grown up and should really be getting married (though i dont know anyone married at 15) but before they even think about it disaster stikes! the manth people are taken into slavery, and kestrel is left behind!
i think this book deals with some issues "its better to be a slave and live than to be free and die" and why do we crave freedom anyway? but without going too deep or coming up with a definite answer.
a bit of the gushy love stuff is in it but again it doesn't go to deep or slushy (the 3rd book has more) which i think is very good. i have no idea how Nicholson comes up with his ideas but i'm really glad he did!
some new characters appear, like sisi and they're just as wonderful as bowman, kestrel and of course mumpo.
Great sequel, read all the books!!!!!

Summary: Wonderful!!!
Comment: This is by far one of the best books I have EVER read. This is an amazing writer. This one even rivals Harry Potter. Anyone who likes a good mix of fantasy, suspence, and action would love this book. When I read the first book I wasnt all that impressed, but this book is amazing. It doesnt even feel like the same person wrote the book. This is a must read!!!
