PASSAGE is a follow on to LEGACY, where Fawn a farm girl and Dag a soldier-sorcerer who has become a Lakewalker, marry then try to find a new life.
After visiting Fawn’s home at the Bluefield family farm they seek passage on a riverboat, with Fawn’s brother, Whit, two Lakewalker apprentices and a farm boy, Dag unknowingly has beguiled and a hunter. They learn the boat’s captain is also seeking her fiancé and her father, as they have disappeared.
Dag’s mage power has begun to grow and he has no idea what else he will learn about himself. Fawn becomes more able to go with what fate brings, while trying not to wish her life away.
There are many people they all meet along the way, grumpy farmers and those who need healing. To the younger members of the group it becomes an interesting adventure, that none of them know when or if it will ever end and what is in store for them.
There are many characters in this fantasy, some dangerous others helpful while others were not. For anyone who has read the previous two books in the series, it will answer some of the threads left unwoven in the story. Dag and Fawn come from totally different backgrounds, but their characters bloom and grow together as the adventure unfolds. Whit grows up and falls in love as the journey takes them ever closer to the sea. Journeys of the mind and heart are at the centre of this tale, as the reader is drawn into their world. You will follow them as they face protagonists and front up to their beliefs, while trying to help others.
PASSAGE is an interesting mix of relationships and how we bind to or fend off, the people we meet during our lifetime. The romantic side is delicately done as magic is blended into everyday life, along with other people’s expectations, of what the character must be.
