The Incendi elementals that dwell beneath the mountains have found a way to tap into the Arbor's roots, which stretch not only across the land but also through time, and King Pyra is determined to crush the ancient tree. Twenty-two years after the defeat of the Darkwater Lords, Chonrad's widow Procella and their three children are drawn back to Heartwood to investigate the rumour of strange fires springing up across the land. Across three separate timelines, the heroes must battle to join together their ancient sunstones, to overcome the Incendi threat, and to protect the Arbor and make earth victorious once more.

I have recently read Sunstone, by Freya Robertson, and I ended up with positive but slightly bitter-sweet feeling. Sunstone tells the story of several interrelated characters who seek to save the Arbor, the land’s holy tree.
This novel started with a great premise: a mix of viewpoint characters with different personalities, an epic quest to complete, and some fantasy touches. This is the second part of a series, so it is probably easier to understand and follow once you have read the previous book. I had not read it, though, and it was not difficult to catch up on the story. As I turned the pages, I found myself enjoying the novel more than I expected.
Overall, Sunstone was an interesting read. Yes, it does fall in clichés like other books in this genre, but it develops other unique concepts, and I liked how magic is applied to nature and dreams. My only frustration resides in the small details that made the novel less entertaining to read. (
