Betrayed by those she swore to protect.When Kiva is attacked by a group of masked men within the walls of her city, she is told she must leave or those closest to her will die.

But the danger goes beyond the hearts and minds of her people, for a far more insidious purpose lurks in the heart of their leader–one that could spell disaster for every last soul in Madina Basin.

Kiva faces many challenges, both personal and threats to her people. Human greed and an incredible fantasy world with non-stop action and intrigue. What more can you want besides another book in the series.
I’m already reading book 4.
I love this book it was action packed and kept me reading nonstop to the end. 🙂
Powerful Story that Keeps You Reading
This is the 3rd book in the Windwalker series. I read this without the benefit of reding either of its predecessors. That was not an issue as most important backward references are explained and only a few leave you curious but able to proceed.
Kiva is back and determined to expand the participation of women in the Windwalker guild as well as other male-dominated groups. There are those that oppose this change and they are being urged on by the Order of the Red Sun – an ancient organization that has been hidden until recently.
Kiva deals with self-doubt, threats to her and her family, a budding romance, competition with the women who want to get ahead, and the order of the Red Sun. Along the way, she gains new insight into her capabilities and the history of her people.
This is fast-paced with lots of action and well-connected story arcs. There were a couple of times that Kiva’s choices seemed incongruous with her experience, but sometimes those are needed to help the plot.
Overall, it was fun to read and kept me engrossed from beginning to end.
Kiva, the windwalker, gets captured by a group of masked men representing the Red Sons. They tell her that she is not wanted and if she does not leave, her family will be killed. Her family and friends convince her to stay and fight. Elam attempts to over throw the council and take over with his plan. This is another page turner that keeps you wanting more.
I Love the way this author writes Fantasy Novels!
As with the previous books in this series, I really enjoyed the way this author breathed life into the World of the Medina Basin and gave depth to the characters and creatures that live there.
You can’t help but get involved in the Basin’s culture and form opinions on what is right or wrong. And you find yourself cheering as Kiva and Noor deal with the battle against the Sharum and take on the challenges they have to face in dealing with the Red Suns.
And for those who love romance, the romance between Kiva and Jonah adds a lovely dimension.
This book is full of excitement, adventure and surprising twists and I would highly recommend this series to all fantasy readers. The writing is a credit to the author who continues to evidence his creative skills in crafting thoroughly enjoyable novels.
Well done, HG.
I received a free copy of this book and opted to share a review.
Kiva’s story continues as the inhabitants of the Basin find themselves fighting enemies from within and without.
I’ve been looking forward to a continuation fo the series since I finished the last one, and this book does not disappoint. Although this is the 3rd book in the series, it can be read without having read the first two.
H.G.’s writing gets better with each book. Full of excitement, the third book in the Windwalker series is definitely an excellent addition, and well worth reading. I have yet to read anything by this author that I don’t like (I’ve read all his books). The story continues the tale of the people of Medina Basin, with the characters staying true to who they are in the previous books. The author ties up the story well, but leaves you ready for the next story to come. This is well written, well edited, and enjoyable from beginning to end. The whole series is worth reading, and I’m pretty certain will continue to be so with each new tale!
Received as an ARC, this is an honest review. The residents of the Madina Basin have a well known enemy called the Sharun. While they can handle their assaults, but something far more difficult and deadly is on the rise. Called the Order of the Red Sons, its leader claiming to bring peace to the basin through corrupting influences that could destroy the basin way of existing. Kiva and her band of allies must uncover the secrets to unmasked the Order before wins the minds of people. Highly adventurous and realistic; the best one of series.
I love how the story of Kiva and the basin has continued. So many have matured and grown. One of the best world builds I have seen in a long time. H.G. Chambers writes so creative and gives you the adventure you crave. I liked the danger and the fighting that happened in the story with the climax of a few scenes that were awesome.
