Ashes
A mage traded his soul to the Greater Nop Demon Erantonop for a spell, and lost his name and half his memories to boot. His only hope of regaining his former life lies deep in the heart of the Weylin Forest, in the abandoned Temple of Corallyre. On the Spring Equinox, the Greater El Demon Onohiel is said to grant a boon for those brave enough to face packs of carnivorous shape-shifting blight worms and the heavy spring rains that flood the river protecting the temple every year. Joined by his companions Bladehand the swordsman, Nightjewel the healer, and the young thief Leafdancer, they travel through the forest to seek Onohiel's aid in getting his soul and his memories back. But all is not as it seems. Erantonop seems to be manipulating the mage, but for what purpose? Bladehand rescues a woman named Phina from the river whose memories are also gone, but where did she come from, and how is she connected to the mage? Was she sent by Erantonop for a sinister purpose? The mage and his friends struggle to find out before Erantonop gets tired of toying with him and ends the game.

Surprisingly good given I didn't think it'd finish it from the first couple of chapters. Clearly well thought out and designed world, that as a reader you only get some glimpses of. Looking forward to reading the next one.

This was better than I expected. The beginning was a bit off, for some reason. I kind of felt like I was thrown in the middle of a story - I was worried I had started on the second book of a series. But as it progressed it got better. By the end I was hooked, and definitely want to continue with the next in the series.

I really liked this book. I agree it started out a bit slowly, but pretty quickly drew you in and made you care about a pretty interesting cast of characters. I'm very much looking forward to the next in the series and hope Ms. Cofran releases it soon.

I felt this story was short but I liked the twist in the story and thought it had some good character depth. Points for originality. I enjoyed it.
