Another 5 Star Beauty From David Litwack By Awesome Indies Reviews The Stuff of Stars is the second book in David Litwacks The Seekers series’, and it’s as unique, unpredictable and well-written as the first book.This story takes place after Orah and Nathanial arrive on the other side of the ocean. They’re seeking the descendants of the Keepers, those who left the Keep—a receptacle for advanced knowledge now forbidden. They find them, but they’re not as they expected. Their world is falling into disrepair, their advanced technology able to be used by only one aging man. The other adults are trapped in the dream—a mental state where they leave their bodies to become pure mind. Only children inhabit the city, and others have joined the Earth Mother and her Greenies—those who have eschewed technology and left the city to live off the land. Orah had hoped to find technology to take home that would help her people, instead she and Nathaniel find themselves teaching the Greenies the basic skills they grew up with: how to weave and die fabric, and how to sew and reap grain to make bread. They also become the first to attempt to talk to the dreamers since an earthquake upset their machines and trapped them in the dream.These are not light books; the mood is dark in this well-rendered and somewhat dour fantasy world, and yet I never once wanted to put the book down. The story kept me highly engaged and the prose was a delight to read. The overriding theme is the conflict between those who see technology as a god and those who see it as a demon. The author shows that the truth is in neither of the extremes.This book, though a sequel, could be read as a standalone or the previous book could be read afterwards, because the story stands well on its own and anything important from the previous book is mentioned where its needed.Another 5 star beauty from David Litwack.

Another Great Book By Jo-Von First, let me start by saying that if you come across a copy of this book, or are given it and you never read the first one, don’t be dismayed. Though this is the second in the series, it is written in a way that you don’t have to have read the first to fully enjoy it. Yes, to fully understand what a seeker, the keep and keep masters are you would have had to read the first book, but it is such a small part in this book that you won’t get lost.Now to the book. Once again Orah and Nathaniel go out to help their side of the world learn and grow passed the “darkness” that the leaders have drilled into their brains for 1000 years. Crossing the ocean, they find more and less than what they wanted. Wondrous machines that can mend bones, read brain waves and replicate food. But they also find that the people that built these wonders, wanted more and in the process lost all of the adults in the city. Since the machines depended on the brain waves of the people to run, the city was facing disaster. They didn’t know how to live without the machines, and they were failing one by one as the last adult grew older. If they want the knowledge that the city has to offer, they have to find a way to free the minds of the “dreamers,” the adults lost years ago.The book takes you on a roller coaster of emotions and you never know where it is going to go or what is going to happen. I have and would recommend this series to anyone who has an open mind to dystopian books. I was lucky enough to receive this book for free in exchange for an honest, unbiased review.

Long In this second novel, Nathaniel and Orah travel across the sea in search of the descendents of the Keep, in hope that they will be able to assist their people in recovering from the times of darkness.This was a really great book, perhaps excelling even the first. There is a great mystery here about two types of people that Nathaniel and Orah discover... I don't want to give too much away but it was an excellent book about what it means to be human, what humanity can strive for, and ultimately the balance between technology and nature, dreams and reality. Orah and Nathaniel are tasked with determining the fate of 4 different societies, so the stakes are very high. It was a great page turner and a ton of fun to read. I don't have anything bad to say about this except perhaps Nathaniel could have featured a little bit more as Orah tended to overshadow him. This one is 5 stars for me and one of my new favorites.NOTE: I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review.
