It still had its enjoyable moments, but it also made me feel rather impatient at times. It felt too predictable to me. It was rather obvious that all the people in the prophecy would get together and save the day, and the details were not so interesting, nor the story so compelling that I cared exactly how it would happen. ( ) Really love the way Flewelling plays with gender and sexuality in her writing, especially as this genre is so lacking in both. I never thought I'd find that more interesting than necromancers, but in this particular book, I do. The necromancer angle was growing a little tired by the end of this one for me, but I'm really excited to see where the series is headed next! This series is definitely worthy of your TO READ list! Maestro del subterfugio, astuto bribón de porte nobiliario; Seregil de Rhíminee ha enseñado a su protegido, Alec de Kerry, los principales secretos de su oficio. Juntos han realizado todo tipo de robos, grandes y pequeños, haciendo amigos y enemigos en un ambiente de peligro constante, aunque lleno de magia, camaradería y confianza. Pero ahora, mientras la patria que los ha adoptado se prepara para la guerra, el viejo mago Nysander envía a Seregil a enfrentarse a al prueba definitiva de lealtad, confiándole un conocimiento mortal que, de revelarse, le costaría la vida tanto a Seregil como a Alec. Y, a medida que éste descubre la asombrosa verdad sobre su misteriosa ascendencia, se verá catapultado junto a Seregil y un puñado de fieles compañeros a un caótico conflicto contra el mal… en el que la magia no bastará para protegerlos

With the Leran threat laid to rest, Alec and Seregil are now able to turn their attention to the ancient evil which threatens their land. The Plenimarans, at war with Skalans, have decided to defeat their ancient enemy by raising up the Dead God, Seriamaius. The early attempts at this reincarnation--masterminded by the sinister Duke Mardus and his sorcerous minion Vargul Ashnazai--once left Seregil in a sorcerous coma. Now, an ancient prophecy points to his continuing role in the quest to stop Mardus in his dread purpose. Seregil's friend and Mentor, the wizard Nysander, has long been the guardian of a deadly secret. In a secret, silver-lined room hidden well beneath the Oreska, he has served for most of his 300 years as the keeper of a nondescript clay cup. But this cup, combined with a crystal crown and some wooden disks, forms the Helm of Seriamaius, and any mortal donning the reconstructed Helm will become the incarnation of the god on earth. Nysander holds the cup and Mardus the wooden disks--one of which was responsible for Seregil's coma--but the crown must still be located. Threatened under pain of death by Nysander to keep his quest a secret even from his loyal companion, Alec, Seregil is dispatched to find the last missing piece of the Helm so that he and Nysander can destroy it. But this is only the beginning of one of his deadliest journeys ever, for the prophecy also holds that four will come together in a time of darkness, and gradually all that Seregil values is placed at risk as he, Alec, Nysander and Micum are drawn into a deadly web of terror and intrigue.
