Overview
In this long-awaited conclusion to Sharon Stewart's Raven Quest trilogy, ravens, wolves, and Ardah the Two-Leg must put differences aside and unite to confront the greatest threat yet to their world. Seeker carries the tale of Tok the Raven begun in Raven Quest and continued in Wolf Rider to its close. It is a tale at once heart-wrenching, exciting, and, in the end, triumphant. As Kirkus said of the first volume in the trilogy, ""It is a credit to Stewart's storytelling that the ending of a story about ravens and wolves can be as exciting, poignant and tearful as any realistic novel.""

PRAISE FOR THE RAVEN QUEST TRILOGY ""Tok the raven is a nobody, an outcast. His father disgraced and killed, Tok is left with no name, no claim on territory, only shame and rage. When accused of nest breaking and murder, he must flee, in hopes of performing some deed of valor for the good of the raven community that will restore his rightful place in their world. Tok sets off on a journey to find the legendary Grey Lords, the Singers, said to be ancient partners of the ravens; in a thrilling tale of adventure, he succeeds in his quest and is reunited with his mother and community, restoring an ancient bond between ravens and wolves. It is a credit to Stewart's storytelling that the ending of a story about ravens and wolves can be as exciting, poignant and tearful as any realistic novel. Fans of Kenneth Oppel's Silverwing (1997) will soar with Tok. ---Kirkus Reviews, on Raven Quest ""Middle school readers (and the adults with them) will be caught up in this amazing fantasy that would make a terrific read aloud. Raven Quest needs to be read by us all."" ---Joan Marshall, CM Magazine ""An outstanding animal fantasy that immerses readers in the world of these most intelligent birds."" ---Dave Jenkinson, CBRA Online, on Raven Quest
