DESCRIPTION:
Can't stop readingbut I do have to overlook the issues. For the series overall, I have read some of the reviews, and some of the issues are there. I think the biggest issue for me, is that it seems rushed, as there are errors throughout.not constant mind you, but missing words, miss spellings, wrong character/place, etc. Unfortunate, but as long . Legendary If you are into magic, wizardry, fantasy and badass spellmongers this is the book for you.It wasn't a long time ago when I saw the book in my recommended list of books, being an avid fantasy fanboy.

The bad news was that their shamans were armed with more magical power than has been seen since the days of the ancient Imperial Magocracy - and their leader, a mysterious, vengeful force of hate and dark magic, is headed directly to Boval Vale, along with a massive invading army of gurvani. All that stands between the gurvani horde and the people of the Five Duchies is one tired, overwhelmed baker's son who wanted nothing more than to be a simple village spellmonger.. Then one night Minalan is forced to pick up his mageblade again to defend his adopted home from the vanguard of an army of goblins - gurvani, they call themselves - bent on a genocidal crusade against all mankind. Add to his troubles a jealous rival mage, a motley band of mercenaries, a delusional liege lord who insists victory is at hand despite the hordes at his door, a dour castellan, a moody, pregnant girlfriend and a catty ex-girlfriend who specializes in sex magic - all trapped in a stinking, besieged castle with no hope of rescue, and you'll understand why Minalan is willing to take his chances with the goblins. And cheese.
