Summary

Gram lives in the long shadow cast by his father, the late hero Dorian Thornbear. Struggling to find his place in a world where politics and wizardry appear to have replaced the need for men of might and main, he must make his own mark. Trapped within the seemingly safe confines of Castle Cameron, Gram faces both love and tragedy. His choices will not only define himself but serve to remind others of his family's legacy and the reason only a fool threatens those a Thornbear protects.

This is a great first book to introduce characters and the events in the following books. Using somewhat standard troupes the author adds nice quirky touches and builds a solid character driven story. It’s not complicated, to say nice perhaps sounds bland but it’s not a bland story. The characters are likeable and this origins story is well paced.

A delightful read
