This is book one of a new series, The Herald Spy, however,
this series picks up at the end of the series, The Collegium Chronicles, so
fans of Mags will enjoy this new series a lot.
People who have not read that series would be ok starting with this one
also. Lackey’s books are pretty
self-contained, so each story can usually be read as a stand-alone without much
trouble. Mags and Amily have clearly
fallen in love and luckily, Nikolas, Amily’s father and the King’s Own,
approves. He asks that they are discrete
and wait another year before marriage, since the marriage of the Prince was so
recent. Luckily they both have plenty to
keep them occupied. Two feuding families
are arriving in town at nearly the same time and a large part of their jobs
will be to keep the families apart if possible and listen for trouble so that
it can be stopped if necessary. Of
course, that is easier said than done, and the situation could become even more
deadly than they fear. An excellent
fantasy story, Lackey is in top form with this new series.
