Path of Beasts
by Lian Tanner
The Keepers, book three
Book Description:
The city of Jewel is
in peril once again, as it is held captive by the frightful Fugleman, his band
of Blessed Guardians, and an army of merciless mercenaries. There's no doubt
that Goldie and Toadspit want to get their city back, but how can a small group
of children fight against such overwhelming forces of evil? And how, as Goldie
is determined, can they avoid bloodshed in a war that will set thieves against
soldiers, and trickery and deception against a mighty cannon that shoots
cannonballs bent on destruction? As Toadspit fights the Fugleman in a duel to
the death, Goldie must face her hardest task yet. If she is to save the city,
she must walk the mysterious Beast Road, deep inside the Museum of Thieves. No
one knows where it goes and no one has ever returned from it.
Review:
An amazing end to the trilogy. While I felt that
things were not quite as strong in book two as they were in the first (which I
absolutely loved!), I am sooo pleased to say that book three did not disappoint
in the least. Goldie, Toadspit, Bonnie, Mouse, and even Pounce team up to save
their city, defeat the evils they could face directly, and even indirectly, and
each finds the place they belong forever.
Strong characters, an intriguing and danger-filled plot, and a Museum that once again left me longing for a chance to explore it... this book packed quite the punch. I cannot wait to read more from this author, even though this particular story may be finished.
