prize-winning finale to his quest to vanquish the terrifying
Soul-Eaters.
As winter approaches and Souls' Night draws near, the Eagle Owl
Mage holds the clans in the grip of terror. To fulfill his destiny,
Torak must seek his lair in the Mountain of Ghosts. He must defy
demons and tokoroths, and find his way through the Gorge of the
Hidden People. Wolf must overcome terrible grief. Renn must make an
agonizing decision. And in the final battle against the Soul-Eater,
Torak must face the most heart-rending choice of all.
"...the themes of friendship and sacrifice are strong, and the descriptions of hunting, tracking and living in the world of six thousand years ago are as vivid and as interesting as ever... I'm going to miss the Forest and the clans now that the series is over. The Chronicles of Ancient Darkness are aimed at younger teens but I still love them aged nearly-sixteen, and I don't think I'll outgrow them any times soon."

The saga of dark versus light is told with Paver's rigourous pace and brilliant attention to the detail of the Torak's world -- Fiona Noble THE BOOKSELLER A literary treat for any young reader looking for something slightly different from the mass of children's releases HACKWRITERS.COM These books are wonderful examples of how children's books at their best are motored by brilliant, seamless plotting. There is no waste- everything is taut, clean, efficient... There is a beautifully realised sense of an organic culture depicted in these books, and good and evil are measured in relation to how much these characters respect their environment -- David Mohan DAVID MOHAN WORDPRESS BLOG
