This was really cool! Loved the story, love the characters. Love this form of series, where each story is complete in itself, yet ties together well with others, has characters change between books.
Bartimious' comments are just so hilarious it cracks me up. I do hope we will like Mandrake a little more in the next book, right now I understand Bartimious' desire to kill him with the way he is acting like the arogant power hungry brat, but you can see he has felt what its like to be on the other side a little more now. Cant wait to read the next book!
