**//The Sworn// By Gail Z. Martin**

Prediction-I predict that the country will be able to defend itself but there will be major economic problems in the later books. There is a big plague that is going on also so many people will probably die along with the giant war that will happen. If there isn't one big final war i will be surprised but not disappointed these series of books always have a good climax.

Why I chose it- You know how some people say never judge a book by its cover? Well i did, whenever i see a book with a cool name or pretty much a really cool looking cover i want to read it. If it doesn't catch my eye or just looks really boring i don't even give it a second glance, which is probably pretty stupid of me but so far i like this book. Its the fourth in the series and the others were great.

Where i got this book- Borders was going to close, which kinda ticked me off because i go there a lot to get books, so i stopped by to see what they had on sale and i found it.

Summarize- So far the country in the book has been able to defend itself but they are fighting amongst themselves. The king's wife had a kid but the birth went kinda wrong so they are unsure if the baby will live long and the neighboring country is having problems with their dead people walking off in the middle of the night and they have no idea who is doing this or how to stop it.

My thoughts on the book- To tell the truth...i love it! This series of books have been really good and it looks like they can only get better. This book starts off a little slow but it gets really fast paced and there is always something new happening on every page. I like it because there is plenty of fighting and action to keep me entertained. if a book didn't have these qualities i would stop reading it.

What has happened so far- The king of the country is having trouble with some rebels that are stirring up chaos. They think that the plague is his fault when he really didn't do anything. His kid is doing better but his wife is a little sick.The dead people walking around are still a problem but they are getting close to finding out what is the problem.

Describe the character- Trizz the king- He has long blond hair that covers his eyes once in a while. He is about 30 years old but a foot taller than everyone around him. His eyes are a strange mixture of green and blue. His skin is tan from working outside all the time and his hands are rough from years of fighting with a sword.

My thoughts on the book- I am still loving the book. Once in a while a boring part corms up but that is only because there is so much stuff going on. The book has many characters and the author goes into great detail about each one and i love that. It enables me to get good ideas as to how they look like so it makes the book more interesting.

What has happened since last time- Another character that lives far away from the king and all his troubles is starting to be affected by walking dead. He is traveling with his tribe they are nomads and live in tents. There are people that are traveling to ancient burial and digging up people. In order to have the people fall under their control they have to sacrifice innocent people. So the guy traveling with the nomads his name is Jair and his wife is Talwyn. They caught three of the people that are stealing people from their graves and their tribe punished them by summoning some of their ancestors and killing each guy with different animal aspects. It was pretty gory but they agreed the three men had to be punished.

"The end of all days is near!" a quote from a dead guy that is being controlled by some unknown force it just sounds really cool and freaky.
