Kaza Kingsley is a writer, artist, and singer who loves travel and adventure, especially in dangerous and mystical realms. Kaza is also a movie buff and reads constantly when she's not writing books. When she is not off exploring, she can be found in Cincinnati with her loving family...although she may be dreaming of the stars.
"Erec Rex: The Search for Truth," by Kaza Kingsley is the third novel in the exciting and captivating "Erec Rex" series, planned to be a total of eight books when completed. Containing many extremely emotional scenes and breath-taking truths, this book is impossible to put down, with surprises around every corner! Because it is fast-paced and action-packed, it captures the reader's heart and mind and leaves them eagerly awaiting the next installment in the series!

It pulls you in and makes you want to live in Alypium- to make that world REAL. The adventures Erec and his friends go on are so interesting and entertaining. The only reason I didn't give this book 5 stars is because I felt like the author, Kaza Kingsley, kept repeating information that we found out earlier in the book, over and over and over again. Also, Erec throughout this book was really wishy-washy with his inner dialoge battles "I should do this, but I don't want to do this. I am going to do this. I'm not going to do this." It got pretty annoying. But overall, fantastic series and The Search For Truth was a great book! I can't wait until the next book in the series, The Furies, comes out in July!
Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.Erec Rex is back in his third adventure trying to save Alyphium. This time Baskania, aka The Shadow Prince, is back again trying to make the Stain Brothers the next kings. From the very beginning, it's easy to see that this is going to be similar to the other two books in that the quests and situations Erec faces will possibly end his life.
This time though, it's not just Erec's life in danger, it's also his best friend (and hopefully one day love interest?), Bethany's life that is also in danger. As Erec returns to Alyphium from recovering from the last quests in Upper Earth, which seems to be a pattern, he finds that Bethany is in danger and he must hurry and get to her before she makes a big mistake.
The Shadow Prince has found an "inside man," so to speak, and is gaining knowledge about Erec and his ventures, that he shouldn't know anything about. This means, for Erec, that one of his close friends is betraying the trust that he has given them. This also means that somehow, he has to outsmart The Shadow Prince, along with the Stain brothers, and complete his quests.
These quests, like all the others, seem like they are becoming exceptionally dangerous and gives me the thought that either Erec can put every superhero to shame or he will be dead by the next book. But since there are still five other books in the series and Erec is the title character, I know this is not the case.
This time Erec must "Get behind and set it free," which is quite amusing to some extent. We also get a lot of unanswered questions answered and, as usual, we get even more questions, but in due time they will all be answered, I'm sure. We learn more about The Hermit, whom we have met before, and we also learn a bit more about Oscar, Jack, and Melody (she was Bethany's roommate in the first book).
Erec's second quest in the book is to find the Awens and bind them to something else that he's supposed to get from someone that destroyed it long before. Many sorcerers have tried and failed in doing this throughout the years, and they all failed, most with their lives. If Erec chooses to not take this quest on, then Upper Earth will not survive, and eventually neither will their own world. We also not only meet The Fates, but in my case appreciate and quite enjoy them. They bring some much-needed humor and a quite a few revelations to light, plus they are just fun!
Some of the revelations we get are ones that we saw coming since THE DRAGON'S EYE, but there are others that are total surprises. There was something about THE SEARCH FOR TRUTH that THE MONSTERS OF OTHERNESS was missing, and it took me a bit to figure it out and I think I finally did. THE SEARCH FOR TRUTH was similar to THE DRAGON'S EYE in the way that we were dealing with Erec and Bethany and Kind Piter and not dealing with so many extra characters.
We learned more about why Erec should be doing this and not focusing on the fact that he is doing it just because he seems to have to do it. I am once again left wanting more in this series, but this time I have to wait a lot longer for the next book, which doesn't even have a release date yet. And knowing that I have to wait so long to finish this fabulous series just makes me even more excited and impatient to know what happens next!
This is the third book in the renowned "Erec Rex" series by Kaza Kingsley. It is packed with adventure, mystery, and many moments where you will not be able to stop yourself from tearing up. Kingsley has once again executed a wonderful display of characters and plot. This book is better than its companions and will not disappoint anyone who reads it!

From the compelling characters to plot twists to prophesies that are fulfilled in ways no one would expect, this book has it all. I give it 5 out of 5 stars! I will definitely recommend this book to everyone I know!
