When Harry Potter ended, I was bereft with loss... I need a new fix of a magical world. Then I found this book, "Sword of the Raven". And I'm hooked! Now, I'm wishing and hoping that this will become a mega epic in the same caliber as "The Wheel of Time" and "The Sword of Truth".While walking on the beach, Delaney Morgan found Rowan MacLachlan hurt and in need of medical care. There was an instant bond between them - physical attraction and psychic, as in they can literally hear each other's thoughts. Though confused and scared to trust anyone, Delaney found herself helping Rowan. He tells her that he is a Water Mage, an Enforcer and also Delaney's self-assigned trainer to help her weild her superpowers.Weirded out, Delaney did not know whether or not to believe Rowan. But the events after their meeting made Delaney realize that Rowan must be telling her the truth after all.Tightly written and well-edited, "Sword of the Raven" has the makings of a mega epic. And I do hope that author Diana Duncan make this a series of books to develop the storyline and continue to build this fascinating world that coexist with ours.You will fall in love with Delaney and Rowan. They are unforgettable characters. There is also a bevy of supporting characters that were also nicely fleshed out, and thus gives us hope that the author will write several sequels so that we can learn the story of those characters while we continue to follow Delaney and Rowan's adventures.This book is NC 17 due to violence and sexual content
