We continue the adventures of Dion.
This time we are returning to Moria and Dion meets her family for the first time in about 18 years.
She was sold when she 4 years of age to Michael of Moria who wanted to confirm if girls had the brains and temperament to be a mage. Instead our Dion becomes the demonslayer of Gallias.
Dion accidentally ends up in the midst of a civil war, necromancy and a host of familial obligations.
A beautiful read, love and family, demons and horrors set in a medieval world. It remains a favorite of mine for a reason.

This is one for Mercedes Lackey fans. There is engaging dialogue, a richly-woven history for the land and a good deal of character development (especially where the main female character is concerned). In addition there is magic, which is always fun in well-written fantasy. :)

Pretty good fantasy novel -- but don't get the clan destine press ebook. It isn't proofed and it's an incredible pain in the ass to read. The writing is good, though.
