The Wilderking Trilogy, Book 3: The Way of the Wilderking

In book three of the acclaimed Wilderking Trilogy, civilizer Aidan returns home from three years in Feechiefen Swamp to discover that a party known as the Aidanites has arisen among his fellow Corenwalders. They believe the "Wilderking Chant" makes reference to Aidan, and that he is destined to overthrow Corenwald's tyrant King Darrow.

Aidan has no intention of leading any such rebellion. But when the Corenwald kingdom continues to weaken, and the enemy Pyrthens threaten to invade, it's clear the Aidanites are the only army his people have left. What soon transpires among civilizers, feechiefolk, Corenwalders, and Pyrthens alike, no reader could predict. When all is said and done, who will be the Wilderking? Recommended for ages 8 and up.

The Way of the Wilderking begins when a reluctant 18-year-old Aidan is called to be the legendary Wilderking. Fearing for his father, brothers, and all innocent people under the rule of the jealous king Darrow, Aidan is forced to fight and lead an army of miscreants and Feechiefolk. To everyone’s astonishment, Aidan, who has not denied loyalty to King Darrow and Prince Keren, instead leads his army against the threat of Pyrthens.

By Jonathan Rogers, The Way of the Wilderking is the third book in the Wilderking Trilogy. To fully understand the many aspects of this story, read the first book, The Bark of the Bog Owl, and the second, The Secret of the Swamp King. This hardbound book has 25 chapters and 225 pages. The story is fun and humorous, but also quite adventurous.

The Way of the Wilderking is great for 10- to 14-year-olds who don’t mind convenient plot twists. Reading this book will inspire you to become the person God created you to be--even if you feel unqualified. – Estee Wells, Christian Book Previews.com

This is a wonderful series. The books are very descriptive and the characters really come to life. This "Tom Sawyer/King David" cross is very entertaining. Sets a good example for children of all ages. It is nice that the plant life and wildlife are familiar to people from the south.

The Way of the Wilderking was a great ending to the series. I wonder, will there be another series that goes with it? I hope so.
