Review Detail
Running away from the shame of her expulsion, Karigan G'ladheon travels into the
forest called the Green Cloak, she meets a Green Rider -a group of
legendary and elite messengers in the King's service-who is dying with
two black arrows protruding from his back. The Green Rider, makes Karigan swear to carry a message to Sacor City for the
'love of her country'. As as he passes on, he whispers with his last breath; "beware the shadow man...".
Karigan takes over the Green Rider's mission. Through her mission she's faced with many dangers and troubles both magic and mundane. If the message doesn't get to the king in time then the people of the Sacor kingdom will be in grave danger. The same question always pops up just how willing is Karigan to deliver the message.
This is an incredible fantasy book, all the ideas are orginal and well-thought out. The characters are well developed. This is one of the best fantsy books I have ever read, sure it's long but I wouldn't want it any shorter. Karigan is one of those strong female heriones who will do everying in her power to do what is right and help her people. The horse, Condor, was a lovable character as well.
