The Enchanter Heir (The Heir Chronicles, Book 4)
The Enchanter Heir (The Heir Chronicles, Book 4) | Cinda Williams Chima
4 posts | 25 read | 7 to read
They called it the Thorn Hill Massacre-the brutal attack on a once-thriving Weir community. Though Jonah Kinlock lived through it, he did not emerge unscathed: like the other survivors Jonah possesses unique magical gifts that set him apart from members of the mainline guilds. At seventeen, Jonah has become the deadliest assassin in Nightshade, a network that hunts the undead. Emma Claire Greenwood grew up worlds away, raised by a grandfather who taught her music rather than magic. An unschooled wild child, she runs the streets until the night she finds her grandfather dying, gripping a note warning Emma that she might be in danger. The clue he leaves behind leads Emma into Jonah's life-and a shared legacy of secrets and lingering questions. Was Thorn Hill really a peaceful commune? Or was it, as the Wizard Guild claims, a hotbed of underguild terrorists? The Wizards' suspicions grow when members of the mainline guilds start turning up dead. They blame Nightshade, bringing tensions between the groups to a head. Racing against time, Jonah and Emma work to uncover the truth about Thorn Hill, amid increasing concern that whoever planned the Thorn Hill Massacre might strike again. Praise for The Heir Chronicles: The Enchanter Heir * "Chima orchestrates a world gravid with smoke and grit and sudden death, throbbing with hopeless longings, messy affections, festering resentments, passionate hungers, inevitable betrayals, and miraculous flashes of beauty and grace. A smoldering story soaked in tears, sweat and blood, constantly threatening to blaze into an inferno. Spellbinding." -Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Intriguing plot and subplot teasers abound, and the book ends in a cliffhanger that will have readers roaring for the next entry. Chima continues to excel at building tension and populating her well-told tales with new and returning characters we want to know better." -Booklist The Dragon Heir "Chima spins a finely structured tale that roars to a satisfying conclusion." -School Library Journal The Wizard Heir "Chima uses her pen like a wand and crafts a wonderfully rich web of magic, while thankfully leaving some dangling threads for subsequent tales." -VOYA The Warrior Heir *"Chima offers a pitch-perfect blend of high fantasy and small-town reality..." -The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books (starred review)

This is the last book of the series and follows an entirely new set of characters. The original characters to the series are included minimally and I know some people didn't like that. But I loved the story that was told! Nothing like I had expected and definitely recommend!

Chima introduces two new characters in this penultimate book in her Heir Chronicles series about a magical world coexisting alongside our own, more mundane world. These characters, one who can kill by touching you & another who knows nothing about who she really is, are pulled into a dangerous battle between different factions who want to know what really happened at a massacre years earlier. A little long but an interesting world & a good story.

This book was so different from the rest. The characters were new ones with a semi-confusing background. Still likable and still connects back to the other 3 books. While the others wrapped up, this one has a definite cliffhanger. 😫 1 more to go in this series! Definitely recommend. Start with #1 The Warrior Heir.
