So its taken me a while to finish Blood Rose. But i made it through it. There isn't a part in this trilogy that is boring, and i think that's why once i start reading it, its hard to put it down. The first two books are definitely a montage of foreshadowing about this last one. The first book is called Nightshade, and the second book is called Wolfsbane. Blood Rose starts off with Calla rescuing Ren from a bad decision, but you already know that from earlier blogs.
Blood Rose has a very different way of portraying animals and their instincts, the animals being the wolves. Wolves are natural pack animals and fight together. Two packs don't combine in reality, because there would be two alphas. Alphas fight for the upper hand and will fight to the death for dominance and leadership. In this book, the two alpha packs have been mixed, but not exactly combined. The wolves have joined forces with the searchers because they had been lied to all their life about who were the real enemies. The wolves being called the Guardians because there purpose was to guard from enemies and run boarder patrol. Calla plays an interesting role in this book because she plays a role model for other guardians and is greatly admired by the Searchers.
The overall theme here would be courage, honesty, and trust. Shay being another guardian, and also the Scion who is the most important to defeating the Keepers. He must defeat the leader of the Keepers and save his parents from the hold that the Keepers have on the guardians. Not only that but he must go on quests to find pieces of the Elemental Cross. The Elemental Cross are a pair of blades that can only be held by the Scion.
It takes courage to face some of these dangerous quests, honesty to be able to communicate with one another, and trust to be able to put your life into a sworn enemies hands.
