Ghost Dancer: Book Five of the Tales of Menel Fenn

by K.D. Nielson

“My name is As-na and I am a Ghost Dancer.” In a kingdom where five combat arenas are the pinnacle of entertainment, six young women are found brutally murdered. Their flesh, carved with arcane markings and their spirits bound to this realm. So begins an investigation for Freeman Standish and Colonel Alera that will require the aid of an enigmatic Ghost Dancer; a person trained to maintain the uneasy balance in the spirit world, preventing the darkness from overrunning the light. Together, the unlikely trio must discover the truth behind the deaths before the next full moon, and prevent the summoning of Far Dur a Cha, the Dark Man, the Eater of Worlds.

I received a copy of Ghost Dancer through one of the review sites in exchange for an honest review and honestly it was great. It covers quite a bit of ground in the opening chapter and I must admit to re reading it to makes sure I picked up on all the different characters but it all comes together in a very imaginative and colourful fantasy setting. There is plenty of action and K D Nielson ekes the mystery out to keep you guessing to the end.

If you haven't discovered the Menel Fenn series don't hesitate. It would be best to start from the beginning, but this is my second one now and even though I have read them out of order they can be read independently without spoiling the enjoyment. K. D. Nielson is a prolific writer, but each book is simply fabulous to read, well written and imaginative. Ghost Dancer is my favourite so far.
