I've enjoyed this series so far. Some have wrote that the first was better, but don't let that stop you from trying this one. I think the first might be considered better because it was a new world and there was much more fighting. This one seems to focus more on the scholarly aspect (which the Sorcerers do in Amee-they're the scholars of the world) The next book will bring us back to the front lines with the fighters.

The three main charcters in this one was Marion (slightly over weight with a domineering rich mother and very ill MS brother). Jaquar (he's the one in book one where that evil creature hooked onto to his horse for a ride back) whose parents were killed-their life energy was sucked out of them. Now, all he can think of is getting revenge on the creatures threatening their world. Jaquar plans to use Marion to distroy the nest of these creatures even if it means her life. That is until he meets Marion and get to know her. Bossgond (I know I'm misspelling this, but I'm writing from memory) is the elderly father figure. He's the cute old, ecsentric, that turns endearing father figure in the story.

Great book, sure to let the warm fuzzy in your belly gurgle.

I really loved both this book and the first in the series, Guardian of Honor. I believe the next one is coming out in February and will find it hard to wait ;-).

Robin is a very imaginative writer and really creates her "worlds". I like the Heart series very much, but feel that this series is even better. Having read both books more than once, I recommend them.

Though perhaps not the best I've ever read, this book kept my attention and many sections were very well done. Better than some WOT books, definitely!!

If you like books like this one, might I suggest another I've recently come across. The Unsuspecting Mage by Brian S. Pratt. It's another fantasy adventure sure to please. I highly recommend it.

I think Robin Owens has a wonderful imagination and talent for making her worlds seem real. The feelings and emotions come through loud and clear. I also can visualize the other worlds she creats. Even though they are suppose to be out there somewhere,they are not so far "out" that they don't seem accessible and believable. I have read all of her books now and not one has failed to entertain me. When I saw this one was out I snapped it up and could hardly wait to read it. I was not disappointed. I can't wait to read the continuing line in this series.

After reading "Guardian of Honor", I was so looking forward to "Sorceress of Faith". Boy was I ever disappointed. I was misled by the other reviewers praising the book. The heroin, Marian, was weak at best, whiny at worse. The author kept mentioning how powerful Marian is, but she does absolutely nothing with it. I kept expecting Marian to take charge, be a leader, use her powers, but she let things happened around and over her without taking much action in it. While the other characters were out there doing something to fight the dark side, Marian just sits there and worries. All she cares about was her problem, her brother. This, of course, was repeated 10 times over the book. By the 4th time it was mentioned, I was getting more than annoyed. She was willing to take everything Lladrana could give her, but unwilling to give anything in return. Her character and Alexa (Guardian of Honor) is nothing alike. While Alexa is strong and competent, Marian is weak and selfish. She didn't really take a stand until the very last chapter. The hero, Jaguar, is perfect. But I just don't see how such a strong character like him can fall for a weakling like Marian. He fell for her the very first time they touch. Oh per-leaze.

If I'm a little harsh on Marian's character, it's because I expected her to take charge by the 6th chapter. I'm leery of picking up the next book of this series, but I am willing to give Robin Owens another try.
