Ivan’s quest is interrupted when he half-heartedly agrees to help save the life of Zephyrus, a huge Kingwood oak tree, who was severely wounded with the revered Silver Axe. The lad is guided by a wise and honorable spirit, imbued in the Long Dark Cloak, to help find a healing sap to save Zephyrus’s life—or the forest will be lost forever. The journey is filled with a myriad of strange and mythical creatures that hinder his search to save Zephyrus. When war is declared, Ivan finds himself fighting to save his own life and the many friends he has made. He becomes a hero of the forest. When at last he finds his brother, he must ask himself if Peter is the same person he remembered.

Jon –
A 399 page Young Adult fantasy novel. Second book of the Relics series.
This is a well written novel dealing with a young man living alone on a farm outside a forest. His brother has not returned home as expected and the young boy (Ivan) sets out to find him by entering the dangerous forest.
The story flows smoothly which results in a relaxing easy read. There is plenty of adventure, drama and intensity to keep the reader turning pages. The missing brother is not the only undertaking Ivan is saddled with. There are missing relics (Hence, the series name) that he needs to locate and return to the Sanctuary of Truth located inside a Giant Oak.
Essence seeking Vaguers, ravenous ratlings and evil tempered trolls cause Ivan and his forest friends all types of trouble as they attempt to locate Ivan’s brother, the missing relic and any evidence they can find that might help free a witch accused of murder. A cantankerous dragon, flying horses and crabby cat are also in the mix.
This is a good read, as was “The Long Dark Cloak”.
