Ellora, High Priestess to the Goddess of Mithlonde, begins to question the nature of her service, and her Goddess, when she receives commands contrary to her training. When her doubts become more than she can withstand, she seeks freedom through the only person on Mithlonde with enough magic to free her. But is she trading one master for another one? One who is the most dangerous and evil magical entity in all of Mithlonde.
With only 6 pages remaining, and I just couldn't finish it. Clearly there was not going to be a resolution, or even much of a big end scene. The characters were ok, with the evil protagonists the most interesting, but the story just didn't get very far. There were internal reflections in the books however they were repeated and repeated with no growth or insight into what was coming. The dragon element was VERY intriguing, but again there was not enough information to hook me.
To be fair, my reading sessions for this story were short and spread over a long period of time, which did not help in pulling the story together. But if it had been interesting enough I certainly would have picked it up and finished it within a few days.
