Peace and order have been restored to the kingdoms of Tsaia and Lyonya, thanks to the crowning of two kings: Mikeli of Tsaia and, in Lyonya, Kieri Phelan, a mercenary captain whose royal blood and half-elven heritage are resented by elves and humans alike. On the surface, all is hope and promise. But underneath, trouble is brewing. Mikeli cannot sit safely on his throne as long as remnants of the evil Verrakaien magelords are at large.

I loved the last series. The author's descriptions of scenes, battles and the characters were riveting. I fell in love with Pax and The Duke.
When I was looking for a good series to listen to while on vacation this summer I was thrilled to find the new series based on familiar characters. I think these books are even better than the others, and that's saying a lot. I am only two books into the series and look forward to eagerly devouring them as well.
