Echorium Sequence series.
In this third book in the series a young girl's loyalties are tested when she discovers that she is the daughter of Frazhin, the previous books' villain. The other main character is a quetzal--a half-bird, half-man creature--who helps bring about Frazhin's downfall. Readers may have trouble sorting out all of the characters involved in the complex plot, but the fantasy world is unique and interesting. Glos.

Echorium Sequence series.
When a strange girl named Shaiala arrives on the Isle of Echoes, twenty years after the events in Song Quest, Kherron recognizes the evil work of his old nemesis. Although the writing style is unremarkable and Shaiala's awkward speech pattern makes some of the prose clumsy, the unique fantastical beings and exciting action make this an interesting sequel. Glos.
