Synopsis

Galen has spent the winter in Sarres, building a power-base round the symbolic leadership of the Interrex. But as Relic Master, he knows that to face the mysterious Margrave he needs to seek out the Coronet of Flain to complete his powers. Also, Galen and Raffi rescue two men from execution by the Watch: a keeper and a sceptic. These new men severely test Galen's and Raffi's belief in the Order's ultimate success. Meanwhile, Carys continues to struggle to leave the Watch and its way behind as she gradually accepts the help given to her by the Sekoi.

About this title

Review:

Catharine Fisher is a writer of rare talent, with an enviable palette of ideas and a writing style that is at once fluent and spectacular. Flain's Coronetis the third title in her Relic Master trilogy, a top-class fantasy series that has captured the unlimited imaginations of children and adults alike.

Galen, Master of the Relics, is faced with his greatest challenge when he is confronted by the Margrove--who is it? Or what is it?--and forced to deal with it before the return of the Makers. But he must seek out the Coronet of the Flain, the Makers' most powerful tool. Along with his friend and scholar, Raffi, he embarks on a journey that brings him face to face with good and evil, taking him to the heart of a world filled with fantastical characters and ever-changing rules.

A magical and intense page-turner, Flain's Coronet pulses with an energy that courses through the pages, pumping up the tension as Raffi and Galen rip through the strangest of worlds until the final, spine-tingling climax, proving yet again that Catherine Fisher deserves her place among the ranks of the finest contemporary fantasy writers.
