This book was amazing....
My favourite character was Renn. I liked the ending a lot.

Loving rereading this series and experiencing just as much wonder and thrill as I did as a child. The plot is gripping, but it is the world that truly captivates the imagination. Set six thousand years ago after the Ice Age. I love how connected people were to the land, the deep knowledge they had of nature and of how everything is interconnected.
I don't think I've ever read a series so incredibly well researched! As a hiking nut and an avid reader of non-fiction survival and adventure books, I'm loving being able to reread this beautiful fictional series whilst learning so much useful practical knowledge!!
The only thing that makes me sad is how much we've lost by straying so far away from our interconnectedness with the natural world. We claim a damaging dominion over a land we understand less and less as time passes.

On a re-read of the series and I think this book is the best of the first 3 - more complex narrative which was probably designed to age with the reader a little.
IMO it’s a great series to get anyone into reading - they’re not difficult books to read and they’ve got compelling characters with a gripping storyline. It’s been a good way to get myself back into reading as a habit.

Summary: This book begins when Wolf goes missing and Torak and Renn discover the Soul Eaters have trapped him. They venture through the Far North to find and infiltrate the Eye of the Viper in an attempt to prevent the Soul Eaters from opening a door to the Other World and releasing demons across the forest. But, not everything goes as planned and the trio must work together and take turns rescuing each other.
What I liked: I loved how more of this book involved the Soul Eaters. I think they are the most interesting part of this series and I really love when we get to learn more about Torak's father and his history. I also love when Torak makes use of his Spirit Walker abilities.
What I didn't like: I found this book to be considerably more confusing than the others, and I had to go back several times because I had missed something or wasn't sure how Torak and Renn had ended up at a particular place. I read this on audio, so I think this would have been less of an issue with a physical book.
