Was a good book finished it in around 10 hours or so, but found myself surprised that what i thought was going to happen never happened.Spoiler:I expected azerrick to finally return to the human world toward the end and at least let the others know of his return.(namely his wife). It was pointed out scions would be a future enemy in the sorcerers scourge which lead me to think this book would get farther into that story more in depth toward the second half of the book. (not the last 10% of it). Main complaint probably boils down to Azerrick being in the abyss feels like it drags on and offers little to the story.Most notable oddities i have not liked in some of other works are the off main character stories such as the random war with the fourth circle demon, which didnt seem to develop the plot at all.I did enjoy the tie in with the elf in the group of heroes despite my immense dislike for the part they played in "showstopping" the story progress in the book with Azerricks imprisonment with the psylings. I attribute this to the story being too awesome and the heroes being not nearly as awesome as the story was at the time.All in all good series so far keep up the good work and hopefully not the strange side stories that occasionally pop up and stray from the awesomeness that is the rest of the book. Editing on the books are as good as always still have to laugh at some published authors that have their books edited half as well to charge $5 more in many cases.
