A beaten up warrior who has a strong addiction to the ale known as Witchdrale. Its no wonder, the prince he served had him do the most horrific of acts that haunt his dreams. In his turmoil, Coldhollow turns to The First One and seeks out redemption. Mean while, prince Morlin has plans that involve betrayal and searching out ancient evils to fulfill his blood lust desires. He longs for the throne and to be High King that is twin brother sits upon. Sword in the Stars is the first of the Dark Sea Annals and is the ninth book that Wayne Thomas Batson has written. This book is well written, but the only downside was the part that involved "fair-like" folk. I feel that this could have been left out and replaced with something less "cartoon-ish" for me. Maybe something that involved trolls that are cruel at first, but then become powerful allies to Coldhollow. This epic journey is crafted by Mr. Batson that leads the imagination on a grand adventure!

The Errant King - 4 Stars
Storyline - King Lochland is overwhelmed by the work of the kingdom of Myriad. So he goes out and lives among his people, taking up new trades to blend with the town's folk. But old and new enemies are rising up and causing destruction and heart ache wherever they go. Hinterlanders, who live on the other side of the mountains, have an old queen, known as the Red Queen, returns, worse now than she was before. Now part dragon, she rains fire on whoever rebels against her. Alistair and Telwyn go off looking for Cetheral when Abbageal's dreams are haunted by him. But a worst evil is coming from the Dark Sea. Can this evil be turned away? Will the Halfainin be found and be called forth?
Personal Opinion - Good but perhaps too many characters to follow. Don't get me wrong, the characters were great and diverse, and I enjoyed them very much. But, because of so many character, it seemed a little long. Besides that, the story lines were intriguing and new beings were introduced as well as characters I hope to see more of. The Hinterland people were so interesting and fun (they reminded me a bit of Hobbits). I am curious as to how some inhabitants of the land have fared after the terrible battles. The story was good and is leading up to more, dangerous adventures for the next books in the series. So many questions need to answered with the ending of this book.

A great book! Definitely worth a read!
The Errant King continues the epic story of The Dark Sea Annals right where Sword in the Stars left off. It begins with the chapter that you knew was going to happen after the end of Sword in the Stars but was not recorded in the first book. After that, it jumps ahead twenty years to a time when King Lochland is sitting on the thrown of Anglinore and Telwyn is grown up.
This book will take you once again on a journey through the amazing wonders in the world of Myriad. Mr. Batson did a great job worldbuilding. I enjoyed all of Loch's adventures to the various places in his kingdom. The places and people that he saw and met were very realistic. It almost made me feel like I was traveling the world with him.
I really liked the concept of the Purelines. And Cythraul being one of them made him an even better villain. Very cool.
One of the things that I would have liked to find in this book but didn't was a map. There wasn't a map in Sword in the Stars so I was eager to find one in the Errant King. I was a bit disappointed when I didn't. Though, according to Mr. Batson, there will be one in future books.
Overall, The Errant king was a great book. The only things I didn't like about it was the absence of a map (which wasn't a big thing and did not affect how much I enjoyed the story at all) and all of the typos and other errors. But if a few misspelled words and names don't bother you, I would strongly recommend this book. I have already lent it to three of my friends and they all enjoyed it.
I look forward to the rest of the books in the Dark Sea Annals with great anticipation. So far, this has been an epic series and I can't wait for book three!
