Book Review : Diondray's Roundabout ( Book 3 of Diondray Chronicles )

Here is the third installment in the Diondray Chronicles by Mr.Marion Hills which a fantasy series  " Diondray's Roundabout " . In the first part We are introduced to a whole new realm where an azur Diondray resides with his people. There takes place an political uprising, and he comes to know his Uncle's opinion and few thoughts. Getting introduced to the book of Kammbi by his aunt he sets on an adventure filled journey .


In part two he travels to distant lands with unknown people where he meets many tribes. Coming to know their beliefs and rituals he explains to them his motive but gets questioned by the members. More twists make his path more enigmatic. 

Now in this third part I loved reading more of the philosophical learnings of life. He will come to introspection . Is his part in the Oscar Ortega's prophecy significant ? He will see not all belief in the book of Kammbi equally. What will he get to discuss with Diakono and his wife ? That part of their conversations were really intriguing and very well described. 

Also, the different beliefs , magical elements of different tribes and stories of them created an alternative world . He later will judge the righteousness of his journey by juggling  through the things he learnt for life . 


In the flow of the story the fiction also has messages like talking about different facets of life and the importance of selflessness , gratitude and be a responsible one in relationships and about family . 


It is a confluence of different genres whose backbone is fantasy. 

Narration is worth appreciation , I have already mentioned earlier. Looking forward to reading such books by Mr. Marion Hills.
