Embedded Files
Having read Trudi’s first series, Black Magician Trilogy, and enjoyed the style of writing and how the characters within it were portrayed, I had no hesitation in purchasing the first two books in this series when I saw them on the bookshelf of the Waterstones store in Bury. The covers of both are very striking, or they were to me, the eyes of the characters, especially book two, seemed to catch mine and draw me to the book.
The plot of the story is just as engaging and compelling as the Black Magician Trilogy, with characters that are really likeable.
The third book in this series is the last physical book I read before I emigrated to Thailand and by necessity converted to digital editions.
Priestess of the White: Age of the Five: Book 01
Priestess of the White: Age of the Five: Book 01
In a land on the brink of peace—watched jealously by a ruthless cult from across the sea and beset by hidden enemies—five extraordinary humans must serve as swords and shields of the Gods.
Auraya is one.
Her heroism saved a village from destruction; now Auraya has been named Priestess of the White. The limits of her unique talents must be tested in order to prove her worthy of the honour and grave responsibility awarded to her. But a perilous road lies ahead, fraught with pitfalls that will challenge the newest servant of the gods. An enduring friendship with a Dreamweaver—a member of an ancient outcast sect of sorcerer-healers—could destroy Auraya's future. And her destiny has set her in conflict with a powerful and mysterious, black-clad sorcerer with but a single purpose: the total annihilation of the White. And he is not alone . . .

Last Of The Wilds: Age of the Five: Book 02
Although the architect of the White's victory, Auraya's first taste of war has left her sleep filled with nightmares. She walks in fields of blood while the dead rise in accusation. You killed us. You. It seems Auraya will know no peace while these nightmares haunt her, but the only one she trusts to help has vanished.
The Dreamweaver, Leiard, still struggling to come to terms with the ever more powerful memories of the long-dead Mirar, flees into the mountains with Emerahl, perhaps the last of the Wilds. Although not a Dreamweaver herself, Emerahl is powerfully gifted and helps Leiard to make sense of his strange jumble of memories. What they discover will change his life forever.
And far to the south, the Pentadrians lick their wounds and set about finding a new leader. Peace, it seems, must wait a while yet ...

As the promise of peace dies, two peoples are once more drawn inexorably into war.
