Loren's absurd adventures continue. This time he is offered the iron rank in the adventurer's guild, but while the test is ongoing, a vampire elder interrupts and hires Loren and Lapis as bodyguards. Obviously, when powerful beings need guards, things go haywire on a big scale. We also learn a thing or two about Loren's past, which is always good.
Personally I love the extreme situations Loren finds himself in, really liking his interaction with Lapis and other characters in the world. I do wonder where the enemies keep finding all those human pawns, because by now quiet a few villages have been murdered to the last person around our poor mercenary. As a reader you probably should not think too much about how the world still exist or how unlucky Loren is. Then again, both the vampire and Lapis at least openly place questions at Loren's background and I am curious where things are going.
All in all, an enjoyable read, but one that requires a bit of suspension of disbelieve and at times might feel like reading a level 20+ D&D campaign.

Loren and Lapis are invited to test for becoming iron-ranked adventurers, but the test is interrupted by a would be client. The client wanted the pair to escort her to a remote location so she could take a test to become qualified as an adult member of the Elders - the top ranking vampires. Not an easy job since there was opposition to her passing and the pair would be up against hordes of undead. But they managed by thinking outside the box and cheating. So an interesting walk in a very wild park that revealed a bit of Loren's backstory. Looking forward to what sort of disaster the pair gets up to next!

Another adventure for the best adventurers.
Mr Lorem, Ms Lapis and Ms Scena embarks in a new adventure, this time a escorting mission that turns out into something bigger as usual for this party. New characters are introduce, an adventure with plenty of encounters and action, and enemies strong enough to give pause to our heroes. Ms Lapis shines again, one of my favorite characters, with a great personality and charisma, a really cool character with great lines in this volume.
