4-6Missing Link Trilogy series.
Christie and his newfound family of humans, talking animals, and human-animal hybrids in Fourth World struggle to understand the purpose of a sinister invader; meanwhile, an interwoven narrative follows new characters Nessa and Farral, whose societies are threatened by war. As in the previous volumes, the characters are sympathetic, the narrative tension is thick, and the moral ambiguities are profound.
