Rating: 4 out of 5

Rating: 4/5Another series by Mona Hanna, the Prentor series, opens with the first novella, Myriad.The book presents us the story of Myriad, a warlock whose pregnant wife, Machayla, gets very ill. The same illness is being carried by the Queen, also pregnant. The King finds the medicine for his Queen but due to his selfisness he uses it all, making Machayla die with her unborn baby. Myriad promises the death of those from the palace. The murders begin and happen on the Princess' birthday for eighteen years. The next whom were planned to die were those from the Royal Prentor family.Eighteen years later, the story brings us Kalin, a young man who is uncertain of his path. But little does he know what power he has and what a battle he will go through alongside with some new friends and the beautiful Regina who he is head over heels.------------------------I liked this series that Hanna wrote, not only being a short and interesting one but also having many elements (magic, romance, fantasy) combined in a lovely manner. I must admit that I had higher expectations about this series but I guess that the continuation of the Prentor series should be read.I liked the story that the author put into scene but I was a little not too convinced by Kalin's personality, maybe because he is still young. He falls in love extremly quickly but I was really happy to see that the book had a happy ending for him!Throuoghout the book we find out more info about Myriad and his father also.I really liked that the author had an almost flawless style since I have not seen mistakes in her exprimation like in most of the books that I have dealed with in 2013.I can say that I had enjoyed High Witch more than Myriad but that might not be happening to all of you ;D!I highly recommend this book to all of those who love high fantasy! This can be a relaxing fast read since it is almost 100 pages long. I am sure that most readers would finish it just in one day, when they start reading it!PS: Doesn't the cover look really awesome? I really like it!
