"Bring the seals together in Tzoladia and you will learn their secrets." An intriguing, yet simple quest. But nothing is ever that easy.
Killer monkeys lurk in the woods. Treacherous watchers skulk the underground tunnels. An evil emperor's minions control the archipelago city.
Brina is proficient in archery. Moshoi skillfully wields the swords he crafts. Amanki has mastered sailing. But those skills aren't enough. The three young adventurers must make choices. Choices that mean life or death. Choices with no safe answer.
The Society of the Word has given them tools: wise sayings, moral stories, mysterious prophecies. But their faith will be tested. Will the star guide them to their destiny or lead them to their doom? Who will survive?

This was a great expanse on Refugees. I enjoyed the great characters and their unique gifts. The story line keeps me coming back to read the next book...and the next book. I am excited to see what is next.
This book felt more evenly spread over the journeys of the 3, Amanaki, Brina and Moshoi.
Continuing the Mud, Rocks, and Trees series, the main characters, Amanki the Webby, Brina the Glider, and Moshoi the Armored, take the next leg of their respective journeys to the capital, Tzoladia. They all face grave dangers, which was not unexpected, but all of them wind up in situations they did not expect.
Moshoi and his younger brother, Tuka, discover disturbing things as they navigate the underground city of Trenggol near their home. Trying to do the right thing, they wake some of the sleepers there, only to find themselves blamed for the very outrages they are trying to alert the people to. When they are finally able to leave the city, they are still with one of the men of Trenggol who is looking for vengeance for his dead wife. They encounter what they had thought was a mythical beast, and things don’t go at all the way you think they should.
Amanki also encounters a mythical beast – after witnessing many disturbing things in the Webby capital city of Waduk.
Brina and her friend Barque travel with one of the youngsters through the Vargarian Woods. After the Lion Rider, Metlan stops his lion from attacking the boy when he thoughtlessly dives to the ground after a toy, Brina attaches the net he has been caged in to the “high line” the Gliders are using to transport their supplies to keep him from being left behind for the lormonkeys. But was she right to trust him?
It seems like none of them are making much progress toward Tzoladia until suddenly, and not always in what looks like the best way, they are.
