Today I want to talk about “Mandrean Revenge.” It is the third and most recent book in the
Sapphire Chronicles. It has been over
two years since Linvin returned from his life-altering quest to recover the Red
Sapphire. With the gem firmly in his possession
and its power at his command, Linvin is feeling nearly invincible save for the
constant assassination attempts he continues to thwart. His world is about to come crashing
down. Lord Mandrean the 13th
managed to survive their fight. Still smarting
from his wound, he seeks vengeance on his enemy. Mandrean sends his Necromancer to kidnap
Linvin’s dear uncle Anvar. Linvin is
left with an ultimatum. Either he must
surrender to Mandrean for execution before the first frost or Anvar will take
his place. Of he does surrender, Anvar
will be released. Linvin knows they
will kill his uncle regardless of his actions but he cannot just sit there and
do nothing while they execute the man who has been like a father to him. He has never believed a situation was
hopeless. With that bit of optimism he
sets out for the Mandrean Empire by way of the Unclaimed Territory. Along the way he runs into one problem after
another which slows his progress. Then
something unforeseen and catastrophic happens that throws everything off
course. Will Linvin be able to rectify
the situation in time? Is there a way to
truly save Anvar and possibly himself from the terrible fate that awaits
them? Or is this really a no-win
situation? Linvin is in trouble and the
frost is coming…
