Chronicles of Ancient Darkness. Michelle Paver by Michelle Paver (2010-11-01) Hardcover – 1840

I continue to love this series. In Oath Breaker, Torak's story focuses on his quest for vengeance. He demonstrates some erratic, angry behavior at first. This really annoyed me, but of course it turns out to be an important element of the story. Michelle Paver never includes loose ends.I really enjoyed the ending of this book. It is the first in the series with a happy ending, so that was a nice change. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is that these books are beginning to follow a bit of a pattern. It's probably smart that Paver only wrote one more. While this series is incredible, the tale has nearly run its course.

These are set 6000 years ago, and a lot of good vs evil and a boy finding honor strength and courage. My son was absolutely riveted! He got books, one and two out from his school library, and loved them so much that I bought him the remaining four for Christmas. He finished them all by January 2nd. I realize he reads a little beyond his reading level, he's 8, but I'd say that any kid who is into reading , and has read and enjoyed Harry Potter, Rick Riordan and others would fine this series compelling. It was a great find!

Great addition to the series

Amazing series!

Read the whole series...although a children's book I enjoyed it

I read these to my students. They love them and can hardly wait for me to come again.

Loved the series...fun to learn about the possibilities of life earlier than recorded history. Learned a lot about surviving in nature and how humans attempt to explain the world around them.

My 12 year old granddaughter loves these kind of books.
