The Bonemender's Choice
ByPublisher Description
When Dominic's children are kidnapped by raiding pirates, Gabrielle and Feolan find themselves drawn into their most frightening adventure yet, a sea journey into unknown lands. The adventure takes a deadly turn when the Gray Veil, a plague that slowly chokes its victims, strikes the harbor town where the children have been taken. Gabrielle's healing powers are needed as never before, and in the end, it seems, she must choose: She can only save one, her husband or her niece.

“I'll admit, when I picked up the first book of this series, I wasn't expecting anything awesome (especially with that cover - eek! (Yes, I'm a horrible human being and judge books by their covers)). I was pleasantly surprised. And now that I've come to the end of this series, I'm really glad that I decided to pick it up.
The characters may not be the most fabulously developed, but by the third book they feel familiar and they feel real. I especially liked how they interacted and worked together in this book: I never doubted that these were characters who knew one another and cared about one another - which is the first mark of a well-written tale in my estimation.
You could argue that the world also lacked development, but I can't say that I really minded while I was reading. Bennett told us what we needed to know and - especially because the books are so slim - it didn't seem necessary to go into very much detail.
The plot of this book was probably my favorite of all three. I love high fantasy, but sometimes I get a little weary of every plot revolving around some kind of war or world-ending scenario (as good as that can be). The focus of this book was a lot more personal and it was more fun to read. That doesn't mean the plot was predictable and dull, however. Sure, some of the twists could be guessed, but it felt fresh. This was probably partially due to Bennett's prose which, while nothing very glamorous, had a simple, appealing feel to it.
Content: a few curses (one sh-t near the end which is harshest language used in the whole series). Madeline is leered at by her captors and one attempts to rape her (he only gets as far as some mildly-described groping). Yolenka has some very sensual dances.”
