Synopsis

Having tapped into the Crow, the Order's legendary powerhouse, Galen is charged with a force beyond anything he, or his apprentice, Raffi have ever known. And when, during the ritual ceremony on the night of Flainsdeath, Galen receives a message from the makers urging him to find the Interrex - the child of the last great Emperor - Galen knows that the Keepers are tantalisingly close to the brink of a revolution. Meanwhile, Gary is struggling to come to terms with her past, her identity and the mystery of how she became a member of the Watch.

About this title

Review:

"The box in Galen's hands pulsed with light... 'The Word...' He sought for it, hands gripped tight, until suddenly his eyes cleared in shock. 'The Word is ... Interrex.'" In the continuing battle between the Makers and The Watch, Galen the Keeper, tapping into the Crow, (the Order's legendary powerhouse) is charged with an irresistible energy. So when the Makers send him the Word he is bound to follow, and take young Raffi with him. Apocalypse and revolution hover on the horizon as they battle onwards. But Carys has to fight back too, not just for her life, but for the identity taken from her and re-moulded by the Watch, all those years ago.

Interrex is the second title in The Book of the Crow sequence by leading fantasy writer Catherine Fisher, who is also author of The Snow-Walker Sequence, The Conjuror's Game, Fintan's Tower, The Candle Man and Belin's Hill.
