Plimgar to Luminar is about the journey of a lifetime, the journey of life. One sleepy village, in an unsuspecting land is about to be challenged and changed by the threat of evil unleashed. When a freak storm downs the 400 year old Oak of Insight, the Keepers of the Wood are faced with a situation they don’t know how to deal with. Samuel and his sister Rachael will face separation, conflict and death as they fulfill their calling to protect and nurture, to seek and bring help. One must go, one must stay. Both are challenged to step out of their comfort zones and face their fears. Along the way they find unexpected friendships, have their prejudices exposed and come to a fresh understanding of the tension between reality and truth. The characters of the villagers, the invaders and others along the way are illuminated through their struggles, reactions and opinions. All of them are defined by the ultimate questions of whom they will serve, what they stand for and what is truth.
The book runs over a brief nine days. More than what the characters do, the emphasis is on how they are changed. The next book in the series (Wandering in the Waste) takes up where this one leaves off.
