Hell yeah

I love how the story ended. I can’t wait for the next one. Eric is now free and is going to go help with Goliath friend. This will be exciting.

Trust issues

Love these novels. Gone through all 4 in 3 weeks!! One thing I’m not understanding with the main character is the bipolar trust issues he seems to have. Going from empathy, generosity, and engaging with complete strangers; but then is mistrusting, stingy and unapproachable with people he has known the longest and had decent relationships with. Is there trauma in the past? Is it paranoia from being in a new place and people he is expecting to betray him?
Keep making quality novels like these and I will continue to be a loyal reader.

The story just keeps getting better!

The stage first couple of books of the series had a lot going for it, if you want you can read my reviews, but they were held back by some relatively minor issues. But with book 3 and now this book, this series has really taken a big step forward from being good to being great.

The author has shown a proven ability to weave together an intricate story with lots of moving parts and keep the pace both engaging and tense along the way without robbing us of payoffs or leaving us with cliffhangers.

I don’t think I have anything really negative to say about it at this point.

The adventure continues!

This story continues to scratch the magic adventure itch in the best way, looking forward to where it goes next.
