Jander Teregnan has never wanted anything more than to become a mage—to serve his king and defend his country as he explores his natural talent at commanding the strange force known as magic. Of course every apprentice needs a master, which comes with its own set of challenges...especially when the master he's chosen for himself is none other than Andrei Teresh, personal advisor to the king and master mage of the city of Vallerin. Andrei, however, has more pressing problems on his mind than dealing with the unsolicited advances of one untrained mage-apprentice. A fierce and merciless army of unknown intent is sweeping across the land, threatening the security of the kingdom he has sworn to protect. Even worse, dragons—long thought to have withdrawn from the world of mankind—are emerging once again and spreading chaos in their wake. Somehow, Jander must find a way to help; not only to prove that he can be of use in the defense of his kingdom and become a mage, but also to secure his place at the side of the man he hopes to claim as master both of his magic and his heart. -Prequel to the Dragon Mage Chronicles-

5.0 out of 5 stars An exciting somewhat new world with new magic rules, interesting characters.
Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2019

This began a little slow for me with all the new introductory information about a new world of a new magic, and then beginning to learn how it actually works. However it picks up quickly with characters who are funny, insightful, fully fleshed out and then the true excitment begins and doesn't let up until the end. I want more and am looking forward to the publication of THE DRAGON MAGE CHRONICLES, all four of the books. Thanks for this one. I loved it.

Good story. Way too many unnecessary sex scenes. I'm looking forward to the sequel. Perhaps the author will concentrate more on adventure rather than sex.

It's always a pleasure rediscovering an author that u read in the distant past. I didn't realize I read one
of her works in 2015. Surprisingly, I wrote a review on the book. Really, it is great to know that the author continues to impress by poignant characters and generally creating scenes that are succinct absent excessive elaboration. Almost every page draws the reader into the story creating a pleasurable reading experience. Now , this is someone who knows their craft !!

3.0 out of 5 stars Well written but slightly jagged
Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2020
Verified Purchase
On the whole this book is a good read. The plot is a little jagged but not overwhelmingly so. The main character is interesting, a little stereotypical maybe, but engaging. The main problem I have with the story is perhaps a purely personal one. There's a lot of unemotional sex, and it's quite incestuous in the way that the main character has sex with every other significant character, no matter what their interlinking relationships may be. It cheapens all the relationships, and when there finally is sex with love attached the meaning is pretty much buried. Also, every contact with an adversary seems to turn into a near rape. I didn't understand the emphasis on sex, and I didn't like it. It was distracting. Like I said, it could be my own personal quirk, but this is a review and therefore I must give my opinion.

Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2019

This is an amazing m/m romance.
This author has sucked me into this world and now I sit here awaiting the next series.
I have read one other book from this author and have re-read it time and time again.
This was just spectacular.
Ignore that 1 star review it was written by a person who obviously cannot read categories.

This book has everything: magic, dragons, action, suspence, romance and great sex. Worning, there is rape, but it adds to the evil intent of the enemies in the book and how important it is that they must be stopped. This book kept me at the edge of my seat, rooting for the good guys to preserver.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing
Reviewed in the United States on September 1, 2020
Verified Purchase
I found the main character to be too much a Mary Sue - even for the fantasy genre - and the story was too padded out with long, long sex scenes. I got bored of how incredibly often the main character having sex factored into a scene somehow. I also object to romanticizing the unrealistic (and in a few cases, legit unsafe) sexual interactions. Sexual positivity is great, but this sexual depiction that sacrifices real character - and real sexual interaction - undermines story, and in my opinion undermines true LGBT representation. Disappointing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Powerful and emotion laden plot.

Even as Jadar searching for a master willing to take him on, he also searches for that certain relationship we all seek, love and the bonding on that deeper level. He finds his power and a few close friends in surprising areas along his way.

5.0 out of 5 stars Scorching in more than one way!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 4, 2019
Verified Purchase
A delightfully intense tale of a boy coming into his destiny and finding plenty of love and friendship along the way! Every sex scene is wonderful in its own way and all of them are incandescently hot. There’s a deeply evil villain who is also cunning and clever, a noble king, a playful kitling, a beloved friend, and a reluctant master mage, not to mention the main character Jander, and all of them feel fully realised and 3-dimensional.

Very much looking forward to reading the next book in the series!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great read
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 2, 2020

Really enjoyed this book as a precursor to the Dragon Mage Chronicles (the first of which I hope will be available in the not too distant future). The author is, I believe, amongst the best in this genre and I have never been disappointed with any of his/her books. If you’re into magic, mages, mm romance and dragons, this is the book for you. I thoroughly recommend it.
