Description

Magic, science, spirituality--what is real and when you are fighting for your life, does it matter?

Having uncovered evidence of a conspiracy to destroy the laws of nature in the Five Realms, the Third Realm Tishaarans send out two expeditions to recruit allies to fight the coming disaster.

Delaney joins a recharged Windglow, the overpoweringly extraverted Hummer, and the beautiful and heroic Shaska to travel to the 2nd Realm city of Orduna, home of  the Citadel of Knowledge. The foursome brave spectacular terrors, including getting trapped in the First Realm Morp, which robs all visitors of intelligence, sense, and coordination. When they finally reach Orduna, they discover the city has been secretly overtaken by the conspiracy. What can the four of them do against this powerful conspiracy?

Meanwhile, Roland and old Berch join the expedition to the Fourth Realm. There they struggle against 4th realm powers, including the mighty Droom empire, home of knights who never sleep. Against all odds, they reach their destination in this magical realm, the animals, who are in terror over the conspiracy that threatens to wipe them off the face of the earth.

Both expeditions face tremendous odds in combatting the massive and deadly conspiracy that is already three steps ahead of them.

    Realm Law is the second in a book series called The Five Realms by Nathan Aaseng. It follows up the adventures in his first book that dealt with the appearance of 3 humans dragged by magic from our world to other “realms,” each with its own physics, unique creatures, and cultures. I am intrigued by Aaseng’s inventiveness as to characters and terrain, physical and societal laws, and the interactions of humans with other sentient beings. I am especially drawn to his depictions of emotional and behavioral similarities among humans and creatures of the “realms,” which seem to me to have an exceptional verisimilitude as they make the same mistakes over and over until they either learn to change or are done in by their inability to learn.This was a page-turner for me as lives were changed or lost, understood in different terms or enhanced. Now I’m looking forward to Book Three.
