This time, his gift brings him into actual contact with someone from the past, who inadvertently interferes with Rigg. Unfortunately, Rigg's rescue efforts are hampered by his gift for seeing the paths of the past as colored trails winding along the ground or even through the air. Of course, Rigg didn't even know he had a sister till that moment.Īs he sets out, Rigg nearly falls from a dangerous river crossing above a waterfall, attempting to save a younger boy who walks in exactly the wrong place. After Father is fatally struck down by a tree in the forest, he sends Rigg away, telling him to sell their stash of furs and go in search of his sister. Most of the information seems pretty useless to Rigg, but the time comes when he suddenly has to apply a great deal of it.
In addition to learning to track and hunt, Rigg has learned-apparently by the Socratic method-a lot of other things, including how to handle himself with people from differing social strata, depending on what he wants. In this new YA book from another well-known fantasy writer, we meet a boy named Rigg who has been raised in the forest by a man he calls Father.
