Editorial Review: In this novel of secret sorceries and forbidden desires, the mystic Cammon must put aside his personal feelings for Princess Amalie while he reads the souls of her suitors for any potential threats. But Cammon is unable to read Amalie, and he begins to suspect that she herself possesses magic powers-a revelation which would put her life in danger, and throw the kingdom into chaos.

Rating: - Angieville: READER AND RAELYNX
This is the fourth book in Shinn's Twelve Houses series. Each volume focuses on one of the six companions and this one follows the youngest--Cammon. The boy who reads souls. Heretofore, Cammon has been something of a delightful enigma. The scruffy little brother with a good heart, not an ounce of tact, and the ability to gauge a person's true intentions. In this volume, he comes into his own and it was a treat to be one up on the rest of the characters for once. To actually be inside his head. Cammon ... Read More
Rating: - Must read the Twelve Houses series
I love the way each book focuses on a different character, yet keeps in touch with the other "leads" and their on-going development. This series creates a believable yet magical and engaging world, with people we love (and hate), with depth and breadth, flaws, foibles and all. This is a universe I would be happy to live in, even with the primitive plumbing!

Rating: - Cammon's tale and culmination of the series...
Although most of the books could be read without the others, it's probably better to have read them in order.

And since this book also entails the war that has been threatening since the first book, more than all the others, this book should be read last.
Cammon is the last and youngest of the six companions and it is right that his tale be told last. The six meet in the first ... Read More
Rating: - The Gillengarian Civil War
Reader and Raelynx (2007) is the fourth fantasy novel in the Twelve Houses series, following Dark Moon Defender. In the previous volume, Ellynor Alowa escaped the convent of the Daughters of the Pale Mother and returned to the Lirrenlands with Justin. There he was tested by her family and found worthy. Then they were married.
In this novel, King Baryn decides that his heir -- Princess Amalie -- should marry. Maybe the marlords will be so enthused with the idea of marrying into the royal ... Read More
