Just finished this one and was genuinely impressed. The story follows Jabrami, a dwarf who discovers a mysterious artifact that pulls him into a world of magic and danger. The action is gripping and well-written, but what really hooked me were the characters, especially the partnership between Jabrami and Elysantra. Their banter feels natural, and their friendship develops convincingly. The author skillfully weaves together intense action, complex characters, and a rich world filled with unique magic and political intrigue. Can't wait for the sequel!

Azarinth Healer has become my absolute favorite series in the genre. Book 5 is no exception. I literally had to force myself to put it down to get a few hours of sleep.
