Emissary by Thomas Locke
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Very interesting.
Hyam is pulled into a world he has no interest in. He just wants to be a farmer.
As his mastery of power develops he becomes so accustomed to it that he can no longer conceive of it not being part of him. He matures from a surly young farmboy to a powerful leader that commands respect and loyalty from his allies, as well as his followers.
In a war, mostly of magic, he is confident -- maybe overconfident.
Hyam's character could have been developed more. He is believable, but a little flat.
Overall, a good read. I will read more of this series, I want to know what further endangers the realm and how Hyam and friends will react to them.
I received this book free through Goodreads Giveaways.
