TEEN: Stonewylde 4: Shadows at Stonewylde - Kit Berry

Release Date: 04/08/11

BOOK BLURB:

Something's lying patiently in wait, until the time is right . . .
Thirteen years have passed since Yul fought for his life at the quarry, and Stonewylde has flourished in a new, golden age. But now the shadows are gathering.
Wild and disobedient, Leveret is the bad girl who disappears at night time and would rather roam the woods than sit in school. Only Clip recognises the girl's magical sensitivity and believes she may be the one to lead Stonewylde out of the approaching darkness.
The shadows thicken as Yul and Sylvie find that something - or someone - is tearing their beautiful relationship apart. As Stonewylde starts to disintegrate, a sinister alliance is forming but they have no idea what evil they're really up against . . .

The highly anticipated new Stonewylde novel is here!


REVIEW:

Stonewylde is one of those series that when it gets you in its grip, it refuses to let go. As usual with this, the fourth out of the currently five planned titles in this series, it’s well written, the characters that have developed along the way have moved further on with their lives and whilst you may have through that things would have moved on to a happier tomorrow, the reader is left to wonder what it is with the land and the people that can change so much from their appearances in the previous three titles to date.

Add to this some cracking characterisation as new ones come to the fore, some magical tapestry weaving to help keep things rolling and of course so authorly sleight of hand that will leave you gasping for the final part of the series now. All in a satisfying read and I really hope that there isn’t a huge delay. The wait is going to be unbearable.
