Product Description
Review
"'a timeless piece of storytelling'. TES wrote: 'an original, inventive story, cleverly plotted and full of interesting characters.' The Bookseller said: 'Seeker (is) an elegantly written story set in a distant past but with everything to say to today's readers.' The Daily Telegraph said '...an engrossing and thoughtful adventure story that held my attention from beginning to end.' 'A triumph' writes the Times, 'an epic saga' Daily Mail, 'thundering adventure and purposeful fantasy' Guardian."
Product Description
People said that the Nomana warriors had magic powers. They carried no weapons, and wore no armour. They had no need. They were the Noble Warriors of the true way, and none could stand against them, until Seeker. All his life, Seeker has yearned to join the Nomana, to fight alongside them, to learn their spiritual ways, and, to find glory. But, this was until the day he discovers that this 'noble' sect are perhaps not as noble as they seem. Seeker sets out to uncover the truth, whatever the cost.

If like me, you loved the Wind on Fire trilogy then William Nicholson's latest book will not disappoint. However, Seeker is nothing like the Wind on Fire; the story has echoes of modern day themes - race hate, religious fanatacism and weapons of mass destruction; making this story vastly different from the previous trilogy.
Focusing on three very different characters, Nicholson weaves a captivating story with intertwining plotlines that come together seamlessly at the end. While some questions are answered for each the end of the book paves the way for the next instalment and I find myself full of anticipation and hope it will not be a long wait.
Buy this book, William Nicholson should not be unread.

being plunged into the world of seeker, morning star and the wildman happens rapidly as you read this book. Mr Nicholsons fine resume bears out as both the excitement of a hollywod film and a deep searching for truth blend seamlessly into this compelling narrative. This is unmissable stuff!! after reading Seeker i continued straight into Jango and I know that I will be waiting eagerly for the final book of the trilogy.

I had read the Wind on Fire trilogy before this and I thought that was good so I read this one. It is really brilliant - maybe even better than the other trilogy. Seeker - full name Seeker after truth, wants to be a Noma. The Noma are a lot of people who are awesome and strong and all that. One day, Seeker goes into the public part of the Noma place and finds that his brother's (who is a Noma) memory is being wiped. He feels really angry and joins up with Morning Star and Wildman (who also want to be Nomas) and try to destroy the secret weapon in the city of Radiance so that the Nomana will accept them. There is an unexpected ending - which adds to the emotion! So if you haven't already read it, try and get hold of it!

Awsome!
I absolutely loved this book but I don't think the synopsis does it justice. Seeker doesn't try to stand against them althought he is turned upside down by what he sees them doing... Read more
