Inquisitor's Mark, The
Autor Dianne K. Salernien Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 noi 2024
After an all-out battle in Mexico, Jax, Riley, and Evangeline have gone into hiding. There are still rogue Transitioners and evil Kin lords on the hunt for Riley, a descendant of King Arthur, and Evangeline, a powerful wizard with bloodlines to Merlin, in order to gain control over the Eighth Day.
So when Finn Ambrose, a mysterious stranger, contacts Jax claiming to be his uncle, Jax's defenses go up—especially after Jax learns that he's holding Jax's best friend, Billy, hostage. To rescue Billy and keep Riley and Evangeline out of the fray, Jax sneaks off to New York City on his own. But once there, he discovers a surprising truth: Finn is his uncle, and Jax comes from a long line of Dulacs—a notoriously corrupt and dangerous Transitioner clan who want Riley dead and Evangeline as their prisoner. And family or not, the Dulacs will stop at nothing to get what they want.

Related to the enemy. Loyal to their target.
After returning from an all-out war in Mexico, Jax Aubrey, his guardian, Riley, and liege lady, Evangeline Emrys, are in hiding. So when a man named Finn Ambrose tracks them down, claiming to be Jax's uncle, their defenses go up.
As it turns out, Uncle Finn is part of the Dulacs, a dangerous enemy clan. After the Dulacs kidnap Jax's best friend, Billy, in order to lure Jax to their residence in Manhattan, Jax has no choice but to go to the city on his own or risk endangering Riley and Evangeline.
There, he meets Uncle Finn; his cousin, Dorian; and the rest of his crooked relatives—plus he inadvertently stumbles upon a maze of magic tunnels beneath their apartment building. And what Jax finds there could put the entire Eighth Day and the Emrys bloodline in jeopardy.

Recenzii
“Combining modern intrigue and ancient magic, this second volume in what continues to be an inspired series does not disappoint. Jax is an endearing mix of heroic and awkward as he struggles with his new identity. An exciting blend of Arthurian legend and organized crime.”
“Blending Arthurian legend with action-packed adventure, the second in the Eighth Day series answers some questions but leaves plenty dangling for the next book.”
“The concept and the characters are strong, and should continue to entertain its audience who will now eagerly await book three.”
“Ancient magic pairs nicely with modern intrigue. Complicated alliances and ruthless villains keep the pages turning. A promising start to a new trilogy.”
“[A] fast-paced, magical adventure. An unparalleled mix of evil villains, humor, and background that set this up for a likeable trilogy to be recommended for fans of Percy Jackson and Harry Potter. Absolutely necessary for middle grades.”
“Fascinating…Melds Arthurian legend into present day. Fast paced and exciting.”
