Book Two of Stratification
Aryl Sarc and the other outcasts of the Yena Clan set off to find a new home. They stumble across the remains of an old village and find it is well stocked with provisions that will help them survive the winter. They also discover the original inhabitants were slaughtered, as their bones litter the ground. Still, with winter coming on, they have little choice but to stay in the abandoned village known as Sona.
This was a much better read than the first book, Reap the Wild Wind. I found that first book a bit confusing. This one just held together better and didn't have as big a story to tell as the first, although it is just as long, over 400 pages in the paperback version. I was so discouraged by the first book that I let the second sit for years before tackling it. But it was much easier to read and more enjoyable. I might even go so far as to get the third book in the series, Rift in the Sky.
