This vengeful person knows how to gain immeasurable power, and also where to find others willing to join in this dark, bloody cause. Foremost among those is the one referred to as the Harbinger. And what do we have to oppose this new, terrible threat to mankind? Well, not much the good guys are sadly lacking in both numbers and power. But, as they say, it aint over until the fat lady sings. The fattest lady in this book is Emkei and she doesnt sing, neither at the end nor anywhere else. Harbinger is the hilarious sequel to Scion, in which B.A. Seloaf both introduces us to a number of unforgettable new characters and lets us meet some of our old favorites. When all of them end up together in the depths of the African jungle, things are bound to happen that not even the most imaginative mind could have predicted.

Seventeen years ago, a long and bloody rebellion wracked the six united regions of the Kingdom. Now the new King wields the vast and unvanquished army of Midlan with his right hand, and with his left has granted a small group of thugs, the nobles he calls his Sovereign Five, unbridled rule over the other regions. As if this weren't bad enough, the King has also outlawed the practice of whispering - which is a problem for Kael. It's not like he asked to be born a whisperer: He didn't ask for his strange healing powers any more than he asked to be the village runt. And when he rescues a wounded girl from the perils of the Unforgivable Mountains, his luck only gets worse. She couldn't have been just any girl: She had to be Kyleigh - the sword-wielding renegade knight with all of Midlan on her trail. Then one miserable, snowy evening, things go from bad to worse, and Kael is left with no choice but to follow Kyleigh down the mountains and into the tumultuous lowlands. She leads him on one mad quest after the next - eventually pulling off an act of such mischievous proportions that it threatens to change the Kingdom as they know it.

Though I am not much studied on the views of Angelology, nor do I have figurines or birdbaths of angels or send out daily memes of them. Forma Lux is a fictional angel set in the format of scripture as I understand it. The Bible speaks about some who have entertained angels unaware, and how do we know we have not been visited? They have appeared to declare God's warnings or foretell what is coming. Forma Lux (form of light) is a harbinger sent from the kingdom of heaven who gives anticipatory sight of what is to come and is a nonmortal servant of God. She is the "hark," the "fear not" messenger to people in individual settings throughout this book. She is a bit snide in a humorous way but can give a piercing dialogue to people who need to hear it. The reader may find the dialogue, the characters, and the unique situations written with passion in a different style or interesting way. The book has three different stories. First story ("Forma Lux and Old Soldiers Fade Away") is about an elderly gentleman unaware that he is at the last days of his life. He fought in WWII and was facing his grief of killing men so long ago and has bitterness against God. He is visited by Forma Lux, and I won't tell you what happens next. The second story ("Forma Lux and the Space Cloud") is the beginning before Forma is assigned to earth by God. She is in a solitude place where her duties are to catch souls that had problems, even after their death, accepting their salvation after their conversion. She dialogues with Ephriam Jones, who fought in the English Marston Moor Civil War in the 1600s. You might enjoy his out-of-body flight, leaving his soul and meeting up with Form Lux and the dialogue the two have. The third story ("Forma Lux: Heaven's Harbinger"), Forma Lux is assigned to Plymouth (Plimoth), Massachusetts, to the pilgrim plantation. They find her living in the woods in a mysterious house by herself, and they call her to task. Of course, there is a witch trial but most of the characters are historically believable at the time. Some of the happenings, or at least the accusation of the happenings, are said in court documents of my own family during that time--that dang floating hammer in the chimney, invisible roof stumpers... Wait for the end. It is a good one.
