Review: Interesting World, Average Action

As "Quest" stories go, The King's Sword was on the high side of average.  I thought the continuing 'mystery' of who the traitor in the group could be wasn't much of a mystery, though.Ms. Searle developed some interesting social groups for her questors to travel through - particularly the cannibals and dragons and their interactions.  However I thought that she used magic to overcome too many of the adversities they met instead of using her characters' wits (or wit) to outwit their problems.However, a fun read with.  I recommend it to anyone who likes this type of fantasy.
