Ebonwilde is the third and final volume in the Bloodleaf series.  Told in short chapters with different points of view and time periods, it catches up with Aurelia as she rises from a magic-induced sleep and searches for her family and friends, while Fidelis, a dangerous and powerful mind-controller, amasses followers.

The book is well written, has multi-dimensional characters, and has created interesting folklore. It would be essential for libraries that have the prior two books, Bloodleaf and Greythorne. Fantasy/magic and romance fans will like it, as will fans of Game of Thrones.
