NEVER STEAL FROM A WIZARD!
Connwaer is a thief of the Twilight. On the run from the city’s Underlord, he steals a banished wizard’s locus stone. Touching the locus magicalicus should kill him, but miraculously he survives.
Intrigued, the wizard Nevery takes Conn on as his apprentice and the boy becomes embroiled in his master’s plan to save the city from the death of magic. But Conn is hiding his own dark secret ...
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
A fun, fast-paced read with a great central character who’s self-reliance and determination has you rooting for him, this is a great introduction to the people and places of Wellmet and I will be reading more of this series to find out what happens to Conn next.
