Pamela Freeman's ''Castings'' trilogy is written in an unusual way for a fantasy novel. It tells the story from the characters' points of view, in a style more common to the chick-lit novels of [[:Category:Josie Lloyd|Josie Lloyd]] and [[:Category:Emlyn Rees|Emlyn Rees]]. This interrupted the flow of the story quite noticeably in ''Blood Ties'', the first of the trilogy, but didn't seem quite so much of a distraction in the second part, ''Deep Water''. Unfortunately, this time around it works against the story.
Saker's ghostly army is going through the towns of the Domains one by one, killing those who are descended from the invaders of the land. He is determined to reclaim the land for the people and is essentially leading a process of ethnic cleansing, using the dead to achieve his aims. Unfortunately, his actions aren't making him feel the way he expected, as he's gaining no real sense of triumph from decimating the people.
I would like to thank the publishers for sending a copy to the Bookbag.
You could now move on to [[Ember and Ash by Pamela Freeman]]. For more fantasy with wonderfully drawn characters, try Fiona McIntosh's [[Odalisque (Percheron) by Fiona McIntosh|Percheron]] trilogy.
