Cry of the Raven

De: Morgan L. Busse

Narrado por: Jaimee Draper

Lady Selene Ravenwood has come into her full power as a dreamwalker just as the war with the Dominia Empire begins. Working with the other Great Houses, Selene and Damien use their gifts to secure the borders and save those devastated by the war. But conflict, betrayal, and hatred begin to spread between the Great Houses, destroying their unity as the empire burns a path across their lands. At the same time, Damien Maris starts to lose his ability to raise the waters, leaving the lands vulnerable to the empire's attacks.

The only one who can unite the houses and restore her husband's power is Selene Ravenwood. But it will require that she open her heart to those who have hurt her and let go of her past, despite the one who hunts her and will do anything to stop her power.

Will Selene survive? Or is she destined to fall like the dreamwalkers before her?

Why does it have to end?

Oh my word! This was such a heart-stopping, whirlwind of a ride. I just want the story to continue. I could read about these characters forever.

One of my fave fantasy trilogies!

The Raven’s Cry is a solid and satisfying finish to a beautifully epic Christian fantasy series.

Good conclusion

I really enjoyed this trilogy. The story is creative and captivating. I o my chose 4 stars because there are definitely parts that I felt dragged a bit, overall it was a great read and I would recommend it!

Excellent series!

This is an excellent series, a very well written story of light vs darkness, personal growth, and romance. The characters are realistic, the magic/gifts unique, and it kept me reading well past my bedtime.

The series is clean in language and without sex. There’s some heated kissing, but it’s tasteful… and oh what a beautiful love story :-)

Highly recommended!

Such a good trlogy

This book held my attention. Great job with both the writing and the performance. I look forward to reading or rather hearing more of your works. Thanks for putting g it on audiobook.

A Fitting End to the Series

There was much more drama in the third and final book in the Ravenwood Saga by Morgan Busse. The stakes were at their highest with the entirety of the lands of the Seven Great Houses on the line versus the Dominica Empire and its traitorous allies.

I appreciated how the stories and character development of Selene and Damien progressed. I also liked the developments — and twists — of the other houses. The conclusions were well-handled.

Throughout the series, the voice acting and narration of Jaimee Draper has been superb. It was very emotive and kept me both intrigued and entertained.

If I could give one critique to the author, it is that I wish the religion and presence of The Light could have also included Christ or the Son of Light, essentially the purpose and importance of Jesus.

That said, Busse did reverence and praise God. She did a wonderful job showing God’s love, mercy, inspiration and redemptive power. This was a positive and ultimately encouraging series. Recommended.

Literal perfection

I absolutely love this series but this book might be favorite of the three books
I recommend this series to everyone

The Final Battle and Exciting Conclusion

In some ways the trilogy is really 1 novel, 1 story. But each of the 3 books is clearly its best own part. Like 3 distinct movements in a single symphony. The first book is dark with odes to Edgar Allen Poe though there is light that breaks through. It is set in a gloomy land focused on nightmares, broken minds, political machinations, and assassination plots. It introduces the world, the characters, and the looming threat.

The second book is filled with hope, light, and romance; though darkness looms in the background. A romantic interlude for the series. Set in a shining coast where characters fall in love, our protagonist goes through a significant spiritual journey, and the table is set for the final confrontation with the enemy.

The 3rd book is an epic conflict, the thrilling conclusion. Good and evil finally confront each other head on. The final battle. War.

I thought Cry of the Raven was an exciting and satisfying conclusion to the story. The excitement of the 7 houses battling the Dominia Empire kept me engaged throughout. I enjoyed encountering the worlds of the houses that had yet to be explored. Interesting questions of war and death are wrestled with. Our characters go through a journey that, of course, leads to a happy ending.

I would recommend this series to all fantasy lovers.

A new way to look at the Trinity’s individual roles

At first, this was very mystical and seemed far-fetched, but once I got into the story, it was such a wonderful way to view. Following God is the light.

The story has some good moments

This is a fine book for a young teen. But the story telling is very hit and miss. And the prose is unnecessarily formal and stilted.
