Forged through Fire By Michael Philliber Friendship that lasts to the end of one’s life is becoming increasingly difficult to maintain in the light of the high mobility of the nomadic 21st Century. And yet friendship – true, lasting friendship – is one of the gaping holes in our societal chests. It is a large theme fleshed out in Tolkien’s works like “The Hobbit” and “The Lord of the Rings” and it is a major tone vibrating through Claire M. Banscbach’s “The Wildcat of Braeton”. This 447 page paperback written for fantasy-fiction lovers young and old, wraps up the story that began in “The Rise of Aredor,” bringing the saga to an end.Many of the cast of characters in “The Wildcat of Braeton” are old acquaintances met in the earlier volume, along with several newer ones. The first half of the story follows Corin’s friend, Aiden, who was still in the service of Lord Rishdah of Calorin, but has now completed his time in Rishdah’s Phoenix Guard. He returns to his homeland and to his family to find out what awaits him. When he left Scodra years before, it was on tense and troubled terms with his father, Laird Gordan, the head of Clan Canich. Upon his return things are not well, for his father has fallen under the sinister influence of Adalwulf of Clan Dyson. The aging Laird Gordan has all but alienated his Clan’s warriors, as well as his sons. What unfolds is a brave, bold and obliging reclamation of Scodra as well as the Clan, and Aiden rises out of the smoke and sweat as the grudging Champion of his Clan. Also surfacing from the dust and deadly contest is a growing attachment to courageous and committed Rona, a young woman willing to be armed and fight for her clan.Once calm and concord have been restored to Clan Canich, other things begin slowly to be reestablished. Relationships between Laird Gordan and his sons, along with the fighters and farmers are rebuilt; forgiveness is sought and received; hope and trust grow; and life begins to return to Scodra as in days past. Yet something unseen, but sensed, is in the air.The second section of the book unfolds with Corin preparing for what he can only suspect. The ranks of the Hawk Flight are slowly refilled, scouts and patrols are sent along the frontiers, but nothing can be seen. Throughout the time of preparing and waiting, Corin finds himself attracted to Mera, as a result of the scheming of his own sister. The relationship moves along, step by step in courteous and chaste ways, in-between patrols and frequent travels to the outposts and borders and back. Finally the concealed menace raises its callous head, and the rapacious conflict is on in earnest! Many of the characters who mount up in both books are bid farewell, and “The Wildcat of Braeton” comes to a close with finality and firmness.All through both portions of chronicle the friendship between Corin and Aiden matures and marches on. There is loyalty, commitment, support and the willing fulfillment of duty even in the face of dim probabilities and potential defeat. Each comes to the other’s aid when called upon, and both display trust in one another. It is a friendship forged in fire!“The Wildcat of Braeton” is a page-turner! It will keep the reader glued to it well into the wee hours of the night. It is a striking portrayal of camaraderie, moral courage, character and tenacious commitment. Older adults all the way to teenagers will delight in the book. As soon as it arrived in the mail my oldest son snatched it up and devoured it in one day! If you’re looking for a good and wholesome story for your young adults or for yourself, I highly recommend you pick up both volumes, “The Rise of Aredor” and “The Wildcat of Braeton”. You will be glad you spent the money to secure your copy!Thanks to Miss Banschbach for providing, upon my request, the free copy of “The Wildcat of Braeton” used for this review.

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. and brimming with great characters. It follows The Rise of Aredor and ... By Shantelle H. Ooh, hard one to rate! Don’t let my low-ish rating (3.5 stars) stop you from picking up this novel; The Wildcat of Braeton really was quite an impressive book…set in the middle of a well-done, fascinating, non-magic fantasy world, and brimming with great characters. It follows The Rise of Aredor and continues the grand adventures of Aiden and Corin, and all their friends and loved ones. There’s epic battles, wonderful friendships, and endearing romance. The quest to guard Aredor continues as both Corin and Aiden rise to new heights and responsibilities in their lives. I did really enjoy it, truly. It is probably not exactly my style book though. I would recommend it more to boys 12/13 or so and on up. And also, girls with more Claire Banschbach’s taste! Some portions of The Wildcat of Braeton just didn’t capture me as much as an epic, gorgeous fairytale would, you know, *wink* But for the most part, I really liked this tale. I found myself wanting to return to Corin and Aiden and see where things would go next. Their lives intrigued me. Their fight for their homeland stirred my patriotic side, *smiles* Since this book is titled for Aiden, I shall mention his family a bit. So the Clans, (including the Braetons), were really fascinating. I almost feel like the idea of these group of people was taken from Scottish ancestry or something of that sort. In any case, their traditions and lifestyle charmed me, *grins* Loved the dancing, the bards, and the songs! So fun. I will say again, I felt Claire’s world building was quite well-done. It has the feel of being thought-out and all. So that was great. I was inspired by the world of The Rise of Aredor and The Wildcat of Braeton. And Claire has definitely found her writing style/flow. I didn’t notice any choppiness in this book. It all came together very nicely! And we get some romance this time! *winks and smiles* Some friendships developed into something more, and there were a few sweet kisses and moments. Some words of love exchanged. I was happy to see more of the girl characters and explore a bit of their thoughts, feelings, and adventures. There isn’t very much of a faith element. We have some talk of singing the dead off to Lleu’s Halls or something to that sort; and other little mentions of Lleu. A few Clan-traditions/folk-lore kind of thoughts scattered throughout as well. As I mentioned above, there were some endearing kisses exchanged as for romance. All sweet, *smiles* There’s some talk of cursing and rough(er) bantering between friends. Also, there’s frequent mentions of ale/drinks. But, after enjoying the story for a while … then we start getting to the heart-rending parts. Be warned, fellow readers, your heart will be (utterly) crushed a time or two. As for me, I like that “happily ever after” fairytale ending feel most of the time, so it was really hard for me to come to grips with certain happenings of The Wildcat of Braeton. And the ending was … different. I’ve read one other book, I believe, with that sort of ending; it leaves me with a bit of a surreal feeling. I haven’t decided if I’m okay with it or not yet, lol! *wink* So there is some sorrow in this book that my girly, fairytale-ish self had a very hard time holding up under. That would be the reason for cutting off a half of star from the rating I wanted to give. But overall, I really liked The Wildcat of Braeton! A chance to explore Aiden/Emeth’s story and journey along more with Corin as well. Just the last bit left me floundering! Here’s what I suggest. Read The Rise of Aredor and also give The Wildcat of Braeton a try. We have a fantastic writer here and wonderful non-magic fantasy, *grins* You can see if the story elements are more to your taste than my personal preferences!I received a proof copy of The Wildcat of Braeton from the author in exchange for my honest review.

The Wildcat of Braeton By Morgan Huneke, Christian Children's Book Author Recommended for: Ages 10 to AdultRating: PG (for violence)The Wildcat of Braeton is definitely a step up from The Rise of Aredor. I certainly liked it better. While it still doesn't make it to my favorites, it is enough for me to continue following this author's career.Writing: 4/5It felt better written than the last book, certainly. There's still more telling than showing, and the character point of view could be deeper, but there was less head hopping and the story was much easier for me to follow. Claire has certainly improved between books.Setting: 4/5The worldbuilding is expanded upon in this book. You get to see what Braeton is like. It reminded me of the Scottish Highlands as portrayed in Little House: The Martha Years. I always loved those books, so being able to draw that connection was a definite plus. It feels like a real world, and I like it.Plot: 4/5I liked this storyline much better than that of the first book. Aiden finally leaves Calorin to go home to Braeton. He had some difficulties with his family prior to running away, so fixing those relationships and fitting back into a very different culture from the one he has lived in for so long is an important part of the story. Also, Corin has trouble fitting into his old life. He doesn't really like being a prince. And the guys start finding girls. :) The threat of war hangs over them for most of the book, but battles don't happen until the climax, which is just where I like it. There are deaths, though, which, well, I didn't like them--at all--but at least it isn't as bad as Mockingjay. The story structure could still use some work. The plot line kind of rambles rather than following traditional story structure, as far as I could tell. Still, I liked the story.Character Development: 4/5In the last book, I felt like I was watching a group of close friends. In this book, I felt like I was on the outer edge of the inner circle. Certainly an improvement. Deep character point of view would make these characters fantastic because, while they are well developed, they are still a little difficult to connect to. That being said, the deaths in the battle did certainly affect me. I was sad. Very sad. They did feel like somewhat pointless deaths, but I guess it is kind of unrealistic for that many characters to survive the battle. I have to say goodbye to the characters before I know them as well as I would like, but I do wish I could know them better in later books. (The epilogue kind of seems to indicate that this is the end of the Aredor/Braeton books, at least for these characters.)The Wildcat of Braeton was a good book. I enjoyed it and do recommend it.For more reviews from me and my sisters, visit www.shirereviews.blogspot.comI received an ARC of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.
