A Sharp Spear Point, a new fantasy novel in the Spear series, is as surprising as it is addictive. The sequel to A Spear in Flight, the novel continues the compelling story of the Realm and the Spears who protect it. Three Spears-fighters barely beyond childhood, impeccably trained in fighting, moral values, and endurance, the defenders of the people-rise to battle enemies who threaten to destroy lives and the political structure holding their Realm together. Bethany, Jon, and Thomasyn are impressive and complex characters and, young though they are, their skill, courage, and wisdom give the story its vitality. Jon's growing mercilessness spawns the trepidation of his friends; the unsettling nature of his rising psychosis is felt at every turn. After the Spears discover the unrest of the spiritual, hard-working dwarfs and encounter a village under the control of trolls, they ultimately must face this menace that grows within their triad. Brilliantly executed, this novel unleashes dangers and discoveries powerfully woven together and irrefutably original. - Vivian Delchamps, Editor
