Guardians of the Word #3
Telepath
A ruthless killer hunts them. He’ll stop at nothing to see his vision fulfilled and his hunger satiated. He has the ability to seek them out through the power of his mind, on the barest strand of thought. If he finds them, he will consume their souls.
Dynan and Dain Telaerin are forced into exile, unable to stay in one place for long. They set out on a journey of survival, barely staying a step ahead of their enemies while they must build an attack force large enough to defeat the massive Cobalt military and retake the throne of their father. They must find a way to increase their telepathic abilities to defeat the greatest evil the Kingdoms have ever known that follows an evil design and seeks to destroy the world.
But nothing is at it seems, and a single mistake could mean death where both must live.
Telepath is the third book in the Guardians of the Word series. The fourth book, Legend, is set to be released in April, 2012.

About the author
Jolea M. Harrison
18 books74 followers“I’m a writer, a mother, and manager of chaos. I have two new adult kids, though I’ve yet to experience the sorrows (joys?) of an empty nest, which means I try to do too many things at once, like so many of us, but it all usually works out. I love writing. It’s what I’m passionate about and what I want to do above all other things.”
After reading The Lord of the Rings, the fantasy bug left a permanent mark with the author, which was then complicated by her immediate love of Star Wars, Star Trek, and other works of science fiction. She started her writing career in earnest several years ago when she set out to publish the epic fantasy series, The Guardians of the Word.
“It’s been more than worth it, and I’ve enjoyed every minute, but especially getting to know the incredibly helpful and wonderful people I’ve met because I took a leap of faith.”
She has become a recent and avid fan of the television series, Supernatural, and immediately fell in love with the SPN family community. You can find her on twitter any given day, discussing the show with fellow fans!

Book Info: Genre: Science Fantasy Reading Level: Young adult
Disclosure: I received a free copy of this ebook from the author in exchange for an honest review.
Synopsis: A ruthless killer hunts them. He’ll stop at nothing to see his vision fulfilled and his hunger satiated. He has the ability to seek them out through the power of his mind, on the barest strand of thought. If he finds them, he will consume their souls.
Dynan and Dain Telaerin are forced into exile, unable to stay in one place for long. They set out on a journey of survival, barely staying a step ahead of their enemies while they must build an attack force large enough to defeat the massive Cobalt military and retake the throne of their father. They must find a way to increase their telepathic abilities to defeat the greatest evil the Kingdoms have ever known that follows an evil design and seeks to destroy the world.
But nothing is at it seems, and a single mistake could mean death where both must live.
My Thoughts: This is the third book in the Guardians of the Word series; there are currently five books available in this series: Chosen, Myth, this one, Legend and Union, with three more to come. The previous book, Myth, left off on a cliffhanger, so I was anxious to get reading on this one.
This book again has a high action level; the characters are on the move and going from one crazy situation to another throughout the whole book. It also takes place over the course of a number of years, unlike the two earlier books, which took place over not quite a year (the first book) and just a few months (the 2nd). It might seem a bit odd that the 2nd book, which has an overall slower pace, should take place over a shorter period of time, but in the 1st book there was a long time frame taken over with Dain and Dynan recovering from their various injuries.
That said, this book continues a downward spiral of sorrow and despair. While giving some idea of it wouldn’t be too much of a spoiler, if you have already read the synopses for the upcoming books, I’ll leave this vague just to be safe. The events of the latter part of the book weren’t unexpected, as the foreshadowing was there, but the letter just broke my heart. You’ll see when you get there. It was a strong, emotional punch in the gut – very well done. Highly recommended.

November 8, 2013Wow, I love this series! The saga continues as the twins are pushed further into darkness, chased by evil and...
I don't give spoilers but will say that this book, as are the others, is well written and full of 'oh my, what's happening now?'. We are introduced to new characters, back again with the old, and the plot thickens with an limitless imagination of worlds and wonderful characters, good and bad.
I won't say anything more except I'm reading Legend and already well entrenched into the story - fabulous.
Highly recommended.

Roller coaster of emotions
Roller coaster of emotions
whew, I got angry and darned mad at a particular character, then I cried real tears at the injustice done to the twins. I knew it couldn't possibly go that way but I have to keep reading as you will to find out what is going to happen. The title's give a clue, subconsciously, but I have to read because I need to know. Now that's a good read.

If you take the first book and then this book (or the 2nd half of the 2nd book), the connection is completely lost. What happened to the main story line?
Only going to finish the series because I got all the books for free on Kindle.
