by Joshua Silverman
The ancient powers lost to Potara have returned. The Brotherhood of the Black Rose rises to bring Thoth into disorder. And, while the Brotherhood reclaims their power, chaos reigns among the survivors. Six individuals have emerged from the aftermath struggling for control over their lives and a divided land. Kem and Shirin, who abolished the five thousand year reign of the Amun Priests, rule from the golden throne of the Oracle’s Chair in the Hall of the Nine. Dio and Axios struggle to piece together a resistance worthy to challenge the ancient magic which resides in the Great Temple of Amun, and Leoros and Atlantia try to remain true to their hearts and their cause despite tragedy.
But when the Book of Breathings is discovered, the path to immortality is revealed. Leoros and Kem race to capture the Soul of the World unaware of the challenges awaiting them. This time, the gods themselves will intervene.
In a tale where boys become men and girls become women, where treachery and deception are around every corner, and where primeval mysticism finds its way back from the grave, victory is reserved for neither the good nor the evil, but the powerful.

Review –
I read the first book The Emerald Tablet and while I thought it was a pretty good book I HATED the present tense. Present tense makes me scream and if I hadn't made the commitment to review I would have quit reading, it did end up being a good book so I'm glad I stuck with it and I wanted to read the second book. I was THRILLED to see it was past tense. Hallelujah! It flowed so much better and the characters I liked in the first book, I absolutely fell in love with in this book.
The Soul of the World is action packed. Joshua Silverman has created an amazing fantasy world with Greek and Roman Gods and mythology. Each chapter was designated to a character, you really got to know the characters in depth. The characterization was deeper and all around it was an excellent book.
