Lindsay is one of my favorite authors.  Whenever something of hers comes out I buy it and go straight to it.  Having just finished her Emperor's Edge Series, I was excited to learn about this new series.  Sardelle Terushan wakes up from a 300 year sleep in mage stasis to find herself embedded in rock, which is now being mined for crystals by prisoners.  Colonel Ridge Zirkander is sent to this prison mine to take command from the now retiring general.  Sardelle is linked to a soul blade she needs to find under alot of rock and escape before she is found out.  Too late.  When she is found in one of the chambers they have dug out, they cant understand how she got there.  With a well placed magic spell she thought she could escape but runs straight into the Colonel who is intrigued by this prisoner.  What ensues is great chemistry between Sardelle and Ridge.  With narrow escapes from avalanches, very large magical owls and another magical sorcerer in a world where magic is looked down on and witches are burned can these two get past their complications.I loved this book.  Lindsay has a way of pulling you in right from the start and not letting go even when its over always leaving you wanting more. She has such great world building and character building that make the characters come to life.  Sardelle is such a great character, she has just enough sass to really get under Ridge's skin.  Jaxi her soul blade is definitely a true soul mate to Sardelle.  The scenes between Ridge and Sardelle have just the right amount of romance and chemistry.  Lindsay's fantasy world draws you in and you feel like you are right in the middle of it all. A great steampunk fantasy with just a little romance to get your heart pumping!!
