Twins Bowman and Kestrel have saved their family and the rest of the Manth people from
slavery and helped bring about the downfall of the cruel city-state of the Mastery. Now, led
by their mother, a prophetess, they are free to seek their promised land. But the journey is
long and hard, filled with many dangers, enemies, distractions, and temptations. And each of
the travelers is preoccupied with his or her own worries. Hanno Hath, the twins' father, is
troubled to see his beloved wife weaken as they draw close to the promised land. As well, he
must bolster the endurance of the often doubting and disgruntled Manth people. Bowman is
torn between his attraction to Sisi, a former princess, and his destiny, as he perceives it, to
sacrifice himself for the good of the people. Kestrel also feels a pull toward a mission, toward
something-but for some reason, she cannot envision her life beyond the journey.
This is the satisfying and profound ending to the trilogy, which began with The Wind Singer,
winner of the coveted Smarties Prize in England.
• Name: Cydney
Book title: The Wind Singer
This book [The Wind Singer] is
good. The author [William Nicholson] makes up amazing names. The setting of the story
is in a city called Aramath where they are ostracized. The main characters are Kestrel
a girl, Bowman her brother and Mumpo their friend. The theme of the book is to get the
Wind Singer's voice and give it to him so he can bring peace to his people. The author
is saying life is rough.
My favorite part of the book is when Kestrel, Bowman and
Mumpo are flying on birds. This book starts with funny words. This book is filled with
adventure. A person who loves adventure would love this book.
• I thoguht this was one of the best books i have ever read(Besides Harry Potter). It is
interesting to see how the characters changed from regular kids to extraordinary. A must
read for anyone in search for a book to read a long time with.
• I was dissapointed when I was finished, because there was no more to read!!! I wish the
books could go on forever.
• My ten year old had just started to read book one, and he is already half way through.
He said it is really interesting. We got him book two and three also. So he can't wait to
read all of them. He also said that it is weired so far, but nice and keeps him want to
know more.
• Great book. Lots of detail and an exciting plot. Not as good as the second book in the
trilogy....so the second best. Definitely worth reading.
