Death's Third March
With Trian back in his hands, Jase Fairimor learns that his use of Veilgates during the battle spawned unexpected consequences. All across the world, the Veil is collapsing in earnest, releasing demons from Con’Jithar and spreading the darkness of the Void. Nature itself is descending into chaos as the Earthsoul continues to lose control of Her elements.
Forced to choose between his role as the Steward of Trian and his destiny as the Mith’elre Chon, Jase passes the throne to Brysia, then journeys to Zedik Pass to stand with the men of Chellum as they confront Death’s Third March.
As Brysia oversees the rebuilding of Trian’s shattered government, Talia searches the prophecies for clues about Jase’s destiny in the Soul Chamber. Watching from the shadows, Zeniff gathers in the remnants of the Con’Kumen and sets in motion a plot to assassinate Brysia and Talia, confident that their deaths will pull Jase from the path he walks as the Mith’elre Chon.
Half a world away, Aethon Fairimor and his Rhiven allies have massed an army of Tambans and are preparing to join them to Shadan’s army in Melek. Under the Rhiven’s tutelage, Aethon has learned to wield Lo’shaen, the power of the Void, and he is eager to use his newfound abilities against Kelsa. With the aid of a wielding unique to the Rhiven, Aethon has the means to scatter Kelsa’s army to the wind.
Once again Greg Park weaves a tapestry of myth and magic, intense action and quiet contemplation which bring to life a world as rich and varied as our own.
With more than six thousand years of history, The Earthsoul Prophecies is a brilliantly conceived tale of a dying world’s struggle for survival and an insightful look into mankind’s proven capacity for good and evil.

I have been reading the Earthsoul Prophesy books since shortly after the the first one, Veil of Darkness, came out and I have enjoyed every one of them. I particularly appreciate that the "good guys" are not always completely good and that the "bad guys" are not completely bad. This is how I think people are in real life. Although this is not a religious book it contains what for me are religious ideals, forgiveness, faith, and even a hope or fear for the afterlife depending on how you have lived this life.
There are a LOT of characters in this book and many unique words and terms used in this world that the author has created. I appreciate that the author provides a Glossary so that I could look up some of these things. Especially when I would see a character's name or a term that had seen in one of the previous 3 books and knew I should remember it but didn't. This was the first of these books that I read in the Kindle format and to me it is easier to flip to the Glossary in the paper books than it is in the Kindle format. But, then I think that is true with all Kindle books with Glossaries or Indexes that you might want to consult while you are reading.
As with the other books in the Earthsoul Prophesies this one ends on a pretty major cliff hanger. This book has only been out for a couple of months so it will be a long wait for the sequel but I am already anxious to read Book 5.

Another great addition to the Earthsoul Prophecies. The story is just as strong and emotional as ever, and the main characters have grown so much from the first book. Greg Park has done an amazing job with this fourth entry, and I look forward to the fifth and final book's release.
