Raven
Rise (Pendragon # 9) Bobby Pendragon remains trapped on Ibarra unaware
that everyone is not as they seem. He is working to rebuild the village
of Rayne which can’t happen overnight. Saint Dane has lost the battle,
but is that the end of the war? Pendragon’s friends, Courtney and Mark
return to Second Earth to discover a changed world, people who have green
tattoos of a five-pointed star. Who are they? What does the tattoo represent?
A charismatic cult leader has risen to power. Is this leader somehow connected
to Saint Dane? The Convergence, Saint Dane’s final quest begins with Pendragon
out of the picture and unable to communicate with his friends. Alder, Patrick,
and eventually Bobby return to Second Earth to stop this cult from changing
the future.
