The Faceless Mage by Kenley DavidsonMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
So this book was a very interesting book. Leisa was interesting, seeing her navigate the political intrigue and also the way she dealt with The Raven. The king of Garimore was so paranoid that I was close to saying, "Klaus, get out of my book, please, stop being so dang paranoid!" and the prince was just...so really annoying. I was hoping he could jump off a cliff and never come back, because he made me so uncomfortable each time he got around Leisa and tried to get her to be on his side, most of the time and all that.
Brother, ew.
But The Raven was the most...creepiest, I feel, throughout the book. He knew what she truly is (a mirror mage), follows her around after the creepy prince gave her that necklace so he could listen to her every order and follow her around, and on top of that, he couldn't eat, drink, or sleep. That's...so messed up. Even in the beginning, in the prologue, he was magically sealed in armor so he could only do the king's bidding. He didn't even know his name because of the king, and what he looked like.
But thanks to Leisa and her magic, she took off his helmet to reveal that he was a dark elf, and when that happened, everything changed.
He is no longer bound to the king. He has a name now-Kyrion-and he wants to see the world along with Leisa, which is very cool and I love it.
I will continue this series because of how fun it was, and also how both Leisa and Kyrion are starting on their journey.
