The Great Convergence

The Great Convergence (The Book of Deacon #2). Joseph R. Lallo. Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. July 31, 2012. 314 pages. Source: audio library book.

First sentence: A story half told is a crime, and there is no crime greater.

Plot:  The Great Convergence continues the tale of young Myranda Celeste. With fresh knowledge of magic and steadfast resolve to see the end of the war that plagues her land, Myranda sets out to find and unite the five fated heroes, the Chosen. Each new warrior brings her world a step closer to peace, but does she have the strength to survive the trials ahead. (Goodreads). 

My thoughts: I feel that this book went on and on.  It could have been 100 pages shorter than it really was.

That being said I did feel like the story continued well albeit too long, was left with an ending preparing for the next book.  Which I probably will not seek out right away as I have a lot of reading to get done from my 2018 reading plan.  

Myranda has to learn to use and control her magic in order to help combat the enemy.  The hardest part I felt of this  mission is getting the Chosen to work together.  Each having their own powers and they feel the greatest and best and nobody will work together.  

This is a good read for middle readers to young adults.
