Anne Moore (USA: MI) (2007/12/31):
Third book in the Faradawn Trilogy. Book 1 is Quest for the Faradawn, and book 2 is Melvaig's Vision. The former was published in the U.S., but I don't think that this volume or Melvaig's Vision ever were.Cover blurb: Good against evil in a final titanic clash... Surrounded by the evil domains of Dreagg, the last peaceful oasis of Ashgaroth is under threat. The wicked Barll persuade the people that killing for food should be permitted, thus sowing the seeds of destruction in Ashgaroth and among its people. For Morven adn Melvaig, the sands of time seem to be running out. And on the shoulders of Bracca, Morven's son, will fall the task of saving the world from Dreagg's horrifying rule. Now, at last, the animals heroes of Quest for the Faradawn have a champion to take up their cause... The Children of Ashgaroth is the spellbinding conclusion to Richard Ford's epic Faradawn Trilogy, the powerful fantasy sequence which has been compared to Tolkien and Watership Down.
