Publisher's summary

Mordecai has discovered his heritage and must take up the mantle of a lord of the realm, while figuring out what it really means to be a mage of the line of Illeniel.

He is beset on both sides by allies and enemies trying to control or destroy his future. Gods and kings both seek to manipulate him for their own ends, and no matter what he chooses his loved ones will suffer. Will he risk destroying his love with a bond that might be her death, or face the madness that comes to wizards who embrace power without restraint?

Amazing!

I liked this narrator way better than the 1st book! I found myself here after going through the Art of the Adept Series. I fell in love w the writing and needed more! Michael Manning nails it! If you love fantasy with realistic human nature this is it! Another writer that made me wonder how I hadnt found him sooner.

Fantastic Character

I am very picky about my fantasy stories. I really want to like the characters which keeps me involved with the story. This author does that very well.

Penelope is such an annoying idiot.

Penelope is such an idiotic, bossy and just all around unlikable character that treats Mort like he's an idiot baby that needs to be told what to do at every turn... it's just annoying to listen to, especially when he just accepts it. If I stop listening to the series, it will be because the audience is clearly supposed to like Penny but I can't stand her. The book would be better if she wasn't written into it.

Gripping, caring, great narration

Anyone liking adventure and to get ur emotions wracked… this book has it all. It’s dark sometimes, emotional to the point of crying tears, but that’s because you find yourself caring. Well done! In for a penny, in for a pound ;)
