Child of the Prophecy: A Sevenwaters Novel 3
Child of the Prophecy: A Sevenwaters Novel 3 | Juliet Marillier
7 posts | 45 read | 14 to read
The third book in the epic and compulsively readable Sevenwaters series "There are some series so lyrical, so well-conceived, that every new book is a delight, and this describes Marillier's Sevenwaters." The Weekend West "Enormously satisfying ... enchanting, deftly told" Good Reading Child of the Prophecy is the eagerly-awaited follow-up to the winner of the Aurealis Award Son of the Shadows and the international bestseller Daughter of the Forest. Raised in an isolated cove, Fainne has been sent to live at Sevenwaters and burdened with a terrible task. She must use whatever powers she can to prevent the Fair Folk winning back the Islands, no matter what the cost. Even if it means denying herself the one she loves. But can Fainne turn her back on the people she has come to care for? And can she bring herself to rid the world of the chosen one-child of the prophecy? "A rousing page-turner, a heady blending of romance, magic and battle" Booklist

TrishB Loved these 👍🏻 6y
Yeah_I_Read @TrishB I love her books! I‘ve read a few her other series but I somehow hadn‘t gotten to this one yet. Im really enjoying it. I feel she is very underrated as far as popularity here in the US. 6y
TrishB I stumbled on her by chance when I found a trilogy in the library!! The Bridei Chronicles are brilliant! 6y
Yeah_I_Read @TrishB I found her by accident as well lol. The first series I read of hers was Shadowfell and now I‘ve read The Bridei Chronicles and her Blackthorn and Grim series also 6y
Dietz123 I loved Shadowfell, and the sequel. #3 fell flat for me. Her books are hit and miss for me. 6y

This was the book of the original Sevenwaters trilogy that I remembered the least from since I didn't love it quite as much as the first two, so it was almost like reading it for the first time! Doubly interesting to read now that at least three more books have been added with this world and family.

So aggravated. Listening to the third in a trilogy and the audio interpreter decides all the names are pronounced differently! DRASTICALLY different! Did NOBODY think to check the other volumes? Audio is a bail!!!

Books Set By the Sea:

The last book in one of my favorite trilogies. Much of this takes place in an island at sea, on ships, and also has a wonderful, melancholy, myth-redolent ending involving selkies. 🌊🐚
