Summoned to the Gulf Coast of Louisiana, Rhys of Glast, Irin archivist
and scribe of Istanbul, must convince a legendary Irina singer to trust
him. His success could shift the balance of power all over the Irin
world and give singers an important key to their past.
Meera didn’t call for Rhys’s help and she doesn’t need it. The scribe’s mission is to bring more martial magic into the Irin world while Meera has been looking for a path toward peace. She’s convinced that some other motive is at work, and his stubborn arrogance doesn’t pass for charm in her hallowed opinion.
Discovering ancient Irina magic should be something both scholars can agree on, but can these two rivals find any common ground? Neither Rhys nor Meera can ignore the simmering heat between them, but will attraction overcome the caution that has shaped both their lives?

Review: The Seeker is an amazingly well written book. Elizabeth Hunter is a master at creating these fantasy worlds that are so different and yet so similar to our own. Once you start reading the Seeker, you will become addicted not only to Meera and Rhys' story, but also to the wealth of information about Irin and Irina history - which is precisely what brings their world alive and makes it feel real.
Meera and Rhys are just the perfect pair. They could be my favorite couple in the entire series if I didn't have a soft spot in my heart for Ava and Malachi (from The Scribe: Irin Chronicles Book One (The Irin Chronicles)
).
The first half of the book is a very easy read. In the second part we are bombarded with a lot of information about past events. You need to pay attention (or just let a few details go), otherwise you can feel slightly lost in the story. Again, all this information is what keeps this fantasy world alive, but I really admire Elizabeth Hunter for being able to keep all those details straight in her head and put them to paper so flawlessly.
If you love fantasy/paranormal books, The Seeker - in fact, the whole Irin Chronicles series - is a must read. I would say The Seeker (book 7) could ultimately be read as a stand alone, but I wouldn't recommend it. First, because of the great quality of the previous books, and second because you will probably feel even more lost when you start reading all the references to past events in Irin/Irina history.
