The third book in The Raven Cycle series has Blue, Gansey,
Adam, and Ronan searching for Blue’s mother, Maura, and Glendower, who they
believe is the sleeper they must awaken.
Unfortunately, there are three sleepers, and one is definitely supposed
to stay asleep. They are searching the
caves on the ley line but the search is going slowly. Adam is building his connection to the line
and Ronan is experimenting with his powers also. Greenmantle, who sent Mr. Gray, has come to
town himself. He doesn’t understand the
power source and wants to take it. The
teens know that he may cause trouble, but not how much or exactly how to stop
him. This book has some dark turns but
it is a satisfying addition to the series.
While this story wraps up pretty well, it is clear that there is more to
come, as the overall story isn’t finished.
I would recommend reading this series with the first book, not in the
middle. You miss a lot if you haven’t
read the first two books. Fans of
fantasy and magic will probably like this series, especially teen fans of dark
fantasy.
