Right now I wasn't seeing Richard as the teacher out of my nightmares; he was just another Dark mage, and I looked into the future to see what would happen if I turned that knife on him instead....

Alex Verus is still haunted by his time apprenticed to Richard Drakh. He's been free of him for many years, but now the only way to keep his friends from being harmed is to again work for Richard and his deadly ally. Even worse, he's forced to bring the Light mage Anne into this servitude as well. After weeks of being hunted and finally cornered into what he thought was his last stand, Alex never thought his life would be spared - and never anticipated at what price. This time, the diviner can see no way out.

It seems like Alex and his friends are just being bullied again. After countless assassination attempts, burning of homes, kidnappings, torture and much more, these people just can seem to fight back. the last book was filler and this one is too. I would like to see these characters play offense and stop being stuck in reaction mode. This is good writing but the character development has gotten stuck somewhere. I am disappointed, because i feel like these characters are alive by pure luck.

Please stop being so predictable

Great book! Amazing series! It's like the British Dresden Files! Clever, funny, engaging! Definitely recommend the whole series!

Love this book and the whole series!

This series reads like a large book rather than a collection of related stories. I am enjoying the action and character growth. Although the stark contrast between Alex's political and emotional naivete and his skilled ability to manipulate events stretches my ability to stay with the story. Overall I'm enjoying the series immensely.

Enjoyable series
