The future looks bleak in Akaladia.The secret society of the Selected has successfully eradicated all folk born with a strong, latent Spark of Connection...but for a few exceptions.Determined to destroy any and all potential threats to his rule, the Great Master of the Selected has commanded his followers to hunt down and destroy all folk born with a strong, latent Spark of Connection who escaped Kyros Draksas' program to quench the Kanazanda. The Adi'vardikhar has also ordered for the Selected to sow and spread chaos and terror upon the land, as the next step in his plan to bring all of Akaladia to heel.Oblivious to the Selected's chilling plans, Earlyan Marnes has returned to the Desert Continent of Ocrecia, where he will find that things are about to change radically.Training as a warrior is about to come to an end, the Selected are closing in on Earlyan and his mentor, and the young warrior is about to face a stiff test of character in the shape of an enigmatic, mysterious, young beauty.Lúnembril Police Inspector Danowain Raksika is about to find out that his questionable actions to save the life of mighty Móira Vinard have done nothing other than turn him into a target of the Selected's elite spies and assassins.Young Alsbeth Mattis has passed her Loyalty Trial as a member of the secret society of the Selected. There is little to celebrate, though, as Alsbeth's actions have only led to an unbelievable set of events that might just bring powerful House Mattis to an end.Unbeknownst to all, a menace rises from the depths of the jungle, a threat to the whole world at large that will change the face of Akaladia in one searing, fleeting flash, as the Warriors of Balance come forth to fight the evil rule of the Hall of the Selected.

I enjoyed the prior installment, but it was admittedly a good deal headier, thinking-man’s sci-fi reminiscent almost of Stanislaw Lem and the golden age of heady sci-fi, and more recently of Existence by David Brin. While I relish this sub-genre of sci-fi, it definitely restricts the size of the audience. I can see this second offering appealing to a much broader readership.As to overall structure, each chapter drives the story forward and there’s good overall plotting. On a copy-editing level, the author went with shorter paragraphs this time around, which should make for speedier reading, and again helps to enhance the experience.The only cautionary tale I have on a copy-editing level for readers is that the chapters remain quite long. If you’re coming off of reading thrillers and bestsellers, it’s quite the adjustment. On the other hand, for the fantasy genre, these long chapters and big books are somewhat de riguer. One need only thing of the R. R. Martin tomes, but less famous authors also come to mind. So set aside larger chunks of time for reading individual installments and you should be good to go.As to the storyline specifics, the resistance is mounting to the oppressive overlords and reigning family dynasties which maintain a strangle hold on the alien world economy and on their subjects’ minds, by any number of nefarious means. Availing themselves of a blend of high technology and old fashioned Zen master-like mind-control training (reminiscent of how the Jedi knights use the Force in Star Wars), the governing elite easily enslave planetary populaces ill-prepared to defend against them. The ruling families have used their accumulated wealth and power over the ages to continue to refine their subjugation of the masses to ensure they know their place. Needless to say, the political intrigue is rife with modern day analogues.The master’s training of his apprentice in this story was reminiscent of Star Wars, training him both to use the supernatural forces at his command, and giving him philosophical grounding in which contexts to best apply them, right alongside conventional weapons training. The Malleable blade that our hero will come to wield can change its length in response to the wielder’s thought. The Warriors of Balance (analogous to the Jedi knights in this tale) are trained to keep all aspects of consciousness in balance. When tending to the needs of the people, to shine light into darkness, but also to bring shade to areas which are under too much sunlight. If it isn’t immediately clear how to translate that metaphor when you first read it, it slowly becomes clear as you read on.Our hero comes up against enemies who wield hypnotrance, a “force”-like ability, again right out of Star Wars, that allows them to hypnotize any adversary. As a result he’s subjected to mind control training every bit as rigorous as his physical training. Despite all the Star Wars-like parallels (down to the Yoda-like master training his unruly and impatient apprentice), I appreciated the unique qualities of this writer’s franchise. He gives more time over to the romance elements, for one thing. And he takes pains to expose why the corrupt world is the way it is and how those who wield power maintain it. In short he’s able to do things in book form that a film franchise doesn’t have time for in the relatively short-story format of a ninety minute film.The plotting and scheming in this installment is matched by an increase in the amount of action over book one, as the resistance launches its initial sorties against a mysterious underground base governed by the ruling families. Again I can see this playing well to a broader audience. Unlike many middle book installments in a trilogy that tend to lag or feel merely transitional, this one makes the prior one feel like prologue.In line with the series’ ongoing evolution, I went with 4.5 stars on this review versus the 4 star review of the prior installment. If the author continues upping his game at this rate, not just the next installment in the series, but further books by this author will continue to warrant attention. Let me be quick to say though, so as not to be misleading, that this is a sci-fi and dark fantasy mashup. Purists need not enter. But for those who enjoy both genres, and don’t mind seeing them blended, this book gets a solid recommendation from this reviewer.

People are dead but others have taken their places as is tradition in the great houses where siblings murder each other in cold blood for the chance to be the leader of their house.Revenge is the name of the game and the people will get their justice.Our favorite hero, Earlyann, is no longer the inquisitive child. He has been training and is now ready for the real world and his first mission.Things change at warp speed in Akaladia and a lot of what you think turns out to be wrong. We are heading towards and epic showdown but what will the sides be? Who will win? This is a series that keeps you guessing at every turn.The writing is crisp and beautifully descriptive. I can picture each part of Akaladia in my mind and it’s a bleak image. I can love and hate a character at the same time. That’s what is so powerful about these books.Occasionally, the long paragraphs would make reading difficult but that is the only problem I had with this book. I can’t wait until the third book and the final confrontation for the soul of Akaladia.

The villains in the second book are both more twisted and more human, and the plot regularly slaps you through the face with something you weren't expecting. This book may be written in a manner that's both simple and subtly artistic, but the story itself is cunning.
