Kael is an interesting character. As a prince in a country at war he is expected to be a soldier, and in fact, leads a company of men really well. Given a choice, he'd much rather be a historian. The problem is that he isn't given a choice - and he never really grows out of the belief that he isn't the master of his own destiny.
Taren is a half-demon of many facets. He tries to behave like a "nice master", but he struck me as cruel nevertheless. Why? It wasn't only this whole "training thing" (he keeps referring to Kael as his slave). What was worse was that almost every time Kael started to trust him he did something to destroy that trust.
And that gets me to the core of why I couldn't like the story more than I did. The relationship between the two main characters starts to get better as they get to know each other. Even if it is all about Kael adapting and giving in, and Taran getting his way. BUT the fundamental turning point when Kael finally submits is born out of one of those situations where his trust was broken, and he was basically mistreated. Yes, physically he was okay with it, but his emotions are hurt, his mind is still in doubt.
If you like interesting worlds with a fresh new angle on the mythology behind it, and don't mind the D/s aspect, you will really like this book.… (plus d'informations)
