Warlock by Sean Golden



Lirak's adventures continue with even more tests of bravery, deligence and endurance. The second book in the epic series of The War Chronicles has more twists and action than book one, and still leaves enough mystery to prepare for book three. 

After the events of Warrior, Lirak must choose what to do with his newfound and progressive powers. Along his journey, Mayrie, Patrick, Jerok and Dedrick accompany him, and they must learn to adapt to the events that Lirak has set in motion. As Kathioas continues to warn Lirak and tries to gain control over him, Lirak resists in any possible way that he can. Some of those ways question not only his morality, but his humanity. As Lirak decides between what is moral and what is deadly, he meets another person who may understand his situation. But getting close to this person may threaten the very support that he has built. 
While Lirak changes the possibility of the world around him, he discovers that his path may be no accident, and his actions are just the beginning of an even larger plot. Will he be a pawn, or will he break the cycle of events that appear to be miraculous coincedences around him? 

Warlock was a thrilling ride and an unraveling mystery. Lirak's tasks become more and more complex, and his decisions become more intense, with larger consequences. 
The second act of Lirak's story is an interesting journey with dangerous battles, epic events and complex philosophical choices. Lirak's growth from a curious Warrior into a powerful Warlock was a great read, and an entertaining story. 

I give this book five out of five dragons. An epic act in an intense book series.
