Hope Betrayed, the second book in The Silent Tempest trilogy, follows Caleb’s desperate mission to save his only child, Warren. With winter fast approaching and Ada’s centuries-old enemy closing in, Caleb has no choice but to return and face the consequences of his betrayal of Ada’s sacred oath. Yet his son is no longer the boy he once knew. Warren’s resentment over his mother’s death on Earth burns deeper each day, until an act of desperate longing begins the tragic fulfillment of ancient prophecy. Telai seeks Caleb in the wilderness, answering her heart’s call in defiance of her position as Grand Loremaster. Yet a visit from a mysterious stranger triggers a dark vision, and a warning: this child from the stars may be more than he seems. No one knows the ancient stories more than Telai. And no one knows better what they teach us: Evil never dies ... it only sleeps.

About the Author E. J. Godwin doesn't write fiction. He creates worlds to discover.Even when he was a shy, 10-year-old boy he could never stay away too long from his one never-faltering passion, the stories and artwork of his imagination. Even today he still enjoys art as a secondary outlet for his creativity, but the written word has always provided the most freedom and flexibility. For that reason, fantasy and science fiction have always been his favorite genres. As the years passed he added more depth and texture to his inventions, until now, with the help of his editor, Erica Orloff, he has released his stories for readers to enjoy, and hopes to share more in the future.He lives in Michigan with an abysmally stupid yet endearing Persian cat, and enjoys bike riding, hiking ... just about anything that frees his imagination.

By PattyMacDotComma Another solid 4★s for the second part of this fantasy/sagaAfter leaving Caleb, Telai and Warren out in the wilderness, we find them struggling to get back home.I was wishing for a prologue to remind me of Book #1, "Rite of Exile", because many of the place names and character names are unusual and hard (for me) to remember. So I thought I’d look for the map at the back, and voila! A ‘chapter’ at the very end called “What has Gone Before”. I’m glad I found it.I think it’s better to read these books in order, so you can appreciate the relationship development and the flow of the plot, but if you take a break, as I did, then the ‘last’ chapter is a big help. I didn’t find another glossary of names, but I still have Book 1 to refer to, and the ones we’re interested in are easy enough to remember.Back to the story. Widower Caleb Stenger, The Falling Man, and his young son (11) Warren, ‘fell out of the sky’ (crashed spaceship), were adopted by the nice folks on their new planet, learned the language and how to fight (well, Dad did), and fought off some evil foes.But when Warren became deathly ill, Caleb broke the rules to seek an ancient talisman, the Lor’yentre, said to cure anything. Breaking the rules means Exile. Master Raen, Soren, is travelling with them, believing in the righteousness of Caleb’s quest. And of course, Telai, the beautiful and caring Grand Loremaster, turns up before too long, because what’s a good saga without a love story?There’s a giant earth monster and a particularly nasty force field that attacks them with something like brain-splitting migraines to prevent them from crossing out of the area to which they’ve been exiled. And it’s snowing and miserable. And they run out of food. The Lor’yentre produces mixed results for Warren, which will lead us into Book #3, for sure!The story is well told and the language and characters continue to be a delightful, believable mix of modern and mythical. Godwin is an author who does not stoop to wordy, pretentious dialogue in an attempt to impress. He has a nice turn of phrase when it’s warranted, as in this brief description of where they’re headed on horseback:“With Trethrealm’s harvest well past, the road lay empty for miles. The heather-strewn landscape gradually lifted into long, shallow ridges, their moonlit slopes thick with vineyards. Far to the east stood the foothills of the Lorgdir, an occasional gap in the clouds revealing the snow-capped peaks beyond.”But it’s not all easy going. Comes a time they’re struggling down a freezing underground river, at risk of drowning (no spoilers here):“His limbs were stiff from the cold; his heart hammered faster and faster, and his breath rasped in his throat. With every ounce of will at his command he reached for the ledge. His hand slipped, and he lost his grip on the stern. He groped wildly as the current bashed his arms against the stone and drove him under the roaring tumult.“Everything went dark. His body, rigid with fear, turned over and over as the swirling water carried him along, the sound of its fury a dull roar in his ears. He stretched his arms out to either side, felt stone racing near his head. There was no room to breathe.”My only gripe is that I find the many unusual character, tribe, and place names a bit complicated – but I suspect that’s me, and other fans will be fine. :)And I’m sure they will join me in looking out for Book #3, "Fate Defied". Thanks to the author and Booklover Catlady for letting me read an advanced copy of this one.

In fact, I read this book first before I read the first book in the series. And seriously, I do not have anything to complain.I loved the plot. Caleb had a hope when he had come to Ada, a hope to re-live with his son Warren now revived. However, as the plot progresses and ends with a cliffhanger, this hope definitely gets betrayed. It definitely is not a good feeling when a hope, that has been nourished by the heart, gets betrayed. This part of the series makes you empathize and sympathize with a father whose hopes get thoroughly shattered and he feels betrayed by his own son. In short, the relationship aspect between a parent and his child has been depicted really well.Godwin has well-etched out characters. Caleb, Telai, Warren, Soren, all have interesting roles to play. This story has few characters you would truly love to hate and a few whom you would love to love.The author has a great narrative style. Its informative, bringing out facts and historical backgrounds. It has imageries, more of visual and auditory. The language is not too difficult to understand. The story has fantasy and elements of magic in it, but at the same time, it has a tinge of realism to it. And yes, it has its edge-of-the-seat moments as well.To sum up, book two has intrigued me and has made me read book one for a better understanding.P.S- I received this book in exchange on an honest review from Booklover Catlady Publicity. Thank you Maxine.

By Dawn L "Hope Betrayed" (Book 2 of "The Silent Tempest") is a brilliant read.Just like "Rite of Exile" (Book 1), it's a very quick read, with fast-paced action and a story line that kept me hooked.Bring on Book 3 - and anything else E.J. Godwin has to offer!
