so, what Mr. Shier has managed to accomplish is something rarely done. He manages to kick off a new series w none of those 1st book jitters. Alot of times, the 1st in a series is drawn out, alot of info thrown at readers and basically everything that goes into laying all the ground work.Well, this book DID NOT have that feel!!!Ive only recently jumped into the FANTASY cagegory of reading but this book has it all! Magic, Might, Warriors, heroes and not so hero-heroes w bad guys galore.The story flows easily and you'll find that you've read many more pages than you intended to when you look the time.Mainly, just a really great book w not too many flaws. Lots of action, lots of enjoyable story and dialogue between the characters and just PLAIN FUN!!!
