Publisher's summary

The fourth title in the epic best-selling fantasy series featuring the intrepid adventures of Elspeth Gordie.

After a kidnapping, Elspeth Gordie and the Misfits are forced to join the rebellion against the oppressive Council, using their extraordinary mind powers. But Elspeth must also seek out clues left by the long-dead seer, Kasanda, vital to her quest to destroy the Beforetime weaponmachines. One clue is lost in the past, forcing Elspeth to travel the Dreamtrails, stalked by a terrifying winged beast, with the cat, Maruman, as her guide and guardian. Only there can she learn more of the Beforetimer Misfits and their enemy, Govamen. Gradually Elspeth realises that her quest is intimately linked to the Misfits' refuge Obernewtyn - its past and its future....

that’s how they get you

I am hooked into the series and was so disappointed in this installment. Most of it is talking about what has happened, what is happening elsewhere, or what will happen. Very poor narrative arc.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
