Great short. Brian McClellan clearly knows his way around short stories, and I love that we get ongoing perspectives in the Powder Mage universe and that proceeds go more directly to the author. A reader need not have read any prior books/stories from this universe to appreciate the writing and the world.It was neat to see another glimpse of Tamas backstory and a bit of insight into the workings and culture of the Kez. I especially liked getting to know Nikslaus better. I'm interested to see if things from the short stories come together in The Crimson Campaign in any way. That's up next.
