Eighty years have passed since the adventures of Mystic Quest, and the story continues with a new generation of seekers.

Theres Theona is the daughter of a magic-rich family, but devoid of any known magical ability herself. Arryk is the rebellious son of the long-lost Aislynn, whose belief in a centaur slave of the Kyree may be the faery kingdom's undoing. And from the goblin realm there is Lunid, a hobgoblin academic whose obsession with the vision of a handsome faery prince is driving her to perilous limits.

As these three heroes seek to breach the barriers between their realms, they will risk bringing titans, dragons, and a warrior tribe into world-altering conflict.

      March 6, 2006
      Three worlds collide in the mystical, and sometimes mystifying, conclusion of the Hickmans' Bronze Canticle trilogy, which began with Mystic Warrior
      (2004) and continued with Mystic Quest
      (2005). The ancient Bronze Canticles have foretold the violent "binding" of three parallel universes, whose inhabitants—human, fey and goblin—must find a way to coexist peacefully when the gates separating each finally open. Some lyrical writing only partially offsets an inconsistency of tone. The humor and irony in the sections devoted to the goblin empire, the book's most original concept, tends to jar with the more prosaically presented human world, which resembles Tolkien's Middle-earth, and the lovely, sad fey world. Many fantasy fans will find the ambiguous ending a cop-out, though it leaves the door open for further mystical adventures.
