The Two Lands of The Oracle Betrayed still face a drought, so the new Archon, Alexis, a ten-year-old boy with an ageless god within him, determines to cross the desert to put right an ancient injustice. This canny story of politics and religion ends in resounding success, but will keep readers hungry for the third installment in the projected trilogy.
