Wizard's Blood #2
Wizard's Blood
In the concluding volume of Wizard’s Blood, the story continues with Jolan’s team attempting to share their recent discoveries with the leadership in Angon. Knowing their best chance for success is to split their efforts, the team has separated to pursue several related missions that take them to locations scattered across the Settled Lands, including locations that are behind the lines and into lands currently held by the enemy. Traveling alone for the first time since his arrival on Gaea, Jolan heads back to Cobalo, where he is uncertain what kind of reception to expect from the leadership which asked him to leave only months before.
When the team later reunites and the means to activate the Nexus is discovered, Jolan worries he might be unable to return to Gaea if he makes the transition to Earth. Eventually he elects to make the attempt, hoping such a move will allow him to bring back tools that will shift the balance of power and ultimately aid in the winning of the war.
Unfortunately, the wizard Cheurt has been more clever in his planning than expected, and time after time Ale’ald surprises the forces defending the Settled Lands with weapons derived from Earth’s technology that are more capable than any suspected possible, shifting the advantage to the wizards that would rule Gaea.
Meanwhile, Shyar remains a captive, held in Ale’ald with little chance to escape. Knowing she is at the mercy of the enemy wizard Cheurt, she searches for ways to fight back. Uncertain where Shyar is being held, and with no means of moving forces into Ale’ald undetected, Jolan is forced to bide his time, unable to attempt a rescue of the woman he loves.
The state of the war takes many twits and turns, but when things start to fall apart, Asari suddenly insists on a dangerous journey to search for the truth behind a long lost legend, which might offer some hope against their enemy who has suddenly gained a strategic advantage in the war. The dangers of the trip exceed those Jolan and his friends had anticipated, with the mission threatening to end in disaster.

Hidden Treasure
What a grand discovery: Bob Blink. Good authors are few and far between. His characters are likable. His prose crisp. His stories entertaining. I already read “Corrector” and can’t wait to read more. Oh happy day.

A great ending! This story will keep you going and make it hard to put the book Down to eat, sleep, or whatever you had planned to do.
I don't do spoilers, so my only recommendation to you would be if you like magic and mysteries, then you got to read this series.
