The White Thread: The Gateway Chronicles 3

The White Thread: The Gateway Chronicles 3

Darcy Pennington spent her freshman year agonizing over the sacrifice of her dear friend who gave himself to the Oracle to set her free. But when she returns to Alitheia determined to rescue him, she soon discovers there’s much more at stake than just his fate. Alitheia is in turmoil, the dark power of Tselloch grows stronger every day, and a new riddle from the Oracle hangs over all their heads. To set things right, the Six, the alchemist Rubidius, and Prince Tellius must set off on a sea voyage into the realm of a legendary archipelago. The journey is riddled with foes who are both deceptive and charming, and Darcy feels just as conflicted in her heart as she does in her mind over the mysteries she has to solve. Darcy isn’t sure if she’s prepared for another meeting with the Oracle, but if she wants any chance of saving her friend—and saving Alitheia—she must try. "Author K. B. Hoyle pens scenes that pop with vibrant details, making the world of Alitheia vivid and very much alive for the reader... The world of fantasy fiction is brought to an entirely new level with this outstanding series." - Literary Classics International Book Awards "While several authors have... had their worlds compared to Narnia by hopeful publicists, none have ever come close to capturing the feel of Lewis's books. The Gateway Chronicles miss that mark, as well, but they are still possibly the most worthy contenders to date, in terms of atmosphere and sheer readability." - BreakPoint Youth Reads "Hoyle did not simply put words to a page, she told a story that matters. The Gateway Chronicles , above all, is a transformative story--of the characters, the world of Alitheia, and even the audience who reads it." - Rise Up Daily "[ The Gateway Chronicles ] are a great read for adults. More importantly, any parent of teenagers should be pushing them to put away the video games and discover K.B. Hoyle's deep and engaging tales." - David Blair for China Daily "[Hoyle's] Gateway Chronicles is a six-book fantasy series with masterful planning and plotting. If you loved looking for 'clues' in the Harry Potter series to help you guess what was coming, you'll have the same fun here." - Tea and Ink Society K. B.
