Curselock 3

Curselock, Book 3

De: Joseph McCoy

Narrado por: Matthew Bridges

The Dream Ceremony is the moment every young person accepts a Lord's patronage in the form of a Legacy.

For some, this simply means they become better farmers or axe-wielders. For others, it marks the beginning of a long journey.

On his nineteenth birthday, Leland Silver was offered a portion of a Lord's power. The only issue… it was from a Lord no one had ever heard of—the Lord of Curses.

Teamed with his two best friends—a Legacy of the Berserker and a Legacy of the Chameleon—Leland must learn quickly if he wishes to get anywhere in this newly opened world. Together, the trio will lead a relatively normal young adult life: protecting caravans, killing mana-lions, learning to play the harmonica, and forging contracts with gods.

You know, the usual things nineteen-year-olds get up to.

Great

I’m excited for the next book I hope it releases soon. The book series is awesome.

Plot holes

Too many plot holes, and inconsistencies. Midway through the book princess Sybil witnesses her older sister murder a man. This was done expressly to toughen her up. That said, later on she sees a monster die and has a quasi existential crisis because it was the first thing she saw die. While some of these inconsistencies are annoying, I really like the magic system and the world building in this volume. The booklore is pretty good, but I just think next time the volume should spend more time marinating in the editing phase.

Love the unique magic of the MC and the supporting characters are not simply baggage.

Lore is deep enough to be enjoyable but not so convoluted that you need a spreadsheet. Story is paced well. Down time with characters and action. Thoroughly enjoyed.
