Priestess Awakening

“Priestess Awakening” is Volume Four of the Myrridian Cycle, following the prior three books, “An Unlikely Dude,” “A Prince in Need,” and “Legacy of the Archbishop.”  I have not read the first two books in the series yet, but I had the pleasure of reading “Legacy of the Archbishop” last year and really enjoyed it.  Before reading this fourth installment in the series I gave myself a quick refresher course on the prior book since it had been a year ago that I had read the last one.  Once I was up to speed again I jumped right in to this newest work and found it to be just as enjoyable as the last.

As the young King of Myrridia is getting wed, a slain magical practitioner’s spirit is being resurrected in Wyckendom.  Edward Fitzroy, Myrridia’s archbishop, does not have any magical powers anymore so Princess Allison Claybourne, Robert’s niece, is needed to battle the enemy.  However, her magical path is not in line with the beliefs of Myrridia’s Church.

I really enjoyed the continuing story and becoming reacquainted with the characters that I met a year ago.  There are many characters in the novel and if you have difficulty keeping them straight there is a handy chart in the beginning of the book listing their names and a brief notation of who they are.  The plot was just as intriguing as the last installment and the author’s creativity continues to shine through.  The Myrridian Cycle is scheduled to be a five volume series and I am looking forward to reading the 5th volume in the series.
