Poor Koranen has waited most impatiently for his turn at
Destiny. When he discovers a city of Aquamancers he's even
more intrigued. Could one of these ladies be his destiny?
When the brothers make a deal with the Guardian of the
Fountain at Menomon for their Aquamancers to come to
Nightfall and study their desalination plant, they entreat
Guardian Sheren to send four single Aquamancers. Thus sets
in motion for Kor to finally have his destiny fulfilled.
When the ladies arrive, Kor is appointed their liaison and
guide. He also tries to get to know the ladies. Some are
bolder than others but three of them complain about his hot
touch. Kor fears that he will be a danger to them if he
burns out of control as he is sometimes wont to do. The
fourth Aquamancer Danau has her own set of problems. She
tried getting close to a man many years before that ended
in disaster and he ruined her reputation in Menomon. Now
she doesn't date and doesn't want to have anything to do
with any man. She doesn't count on Kor's persistence.
There are other things going on as well leading up to the
Convocation. Can everything be put into place before
something goes seriously awry? Will Morg get Hope's things
moved and get Hope to Nightfall before disaster strikes?
I have thoroughly enjoyed the Sons of Destiny's books
equally but reflecting back and realizing THE FLAME is the next
to the last book in the series, I'm rather depressed. I so
am not quite ready to leave this intriguing world behind as
of yet. It is my hope that Jean Johnson has something
equally spectacular in store for me after I turn the last
page of Morganen's book!
Eight brothers, born in four sets of twins, two years
apart to the day—they fulfill the Curse of Eight Prophecy.
Though no longer trapped in exile, their growing family
faces new problems. Now that it’s his turn to look for a
bride, Koranen, the seventh-born brother, cursed with a
flame that courses beneath his flesh, must find a woman
able to endure the literal heat of his passion. Then Danau
the Aquamancer arrives, and as everyone knows, fire and
water create steam.
