About this ebook

Will’s journey from naïve apprentice to a mature wizard is almost complete and his ever-growing mastery has reached unseen heights. But his power does not exist in a vacuum. His rising star threatens to eclipse the existing powers and a new balance must be found, one that either accepts his primacy or extinguishes his light.

After Will’s resounding successes in the war with Darrow the king plots to eliminate his young rival. Driven to desperation, Will is forced to negotiate for scraps between four brokers of power.

An ancient lich driven by vengeance.

The fae queen to whom all are just pawns in a deadly game.

A nervous lord of Hell, because Will may have killed his predecessor, twice.

A primal beast, feared above all.

With mortal enemies as his allies, Will must survive to face the king—and the deadly secret he plans to unleash. Ancient foes have risen and the final battle has begun. With the world hanging in the balance, king and wizard clash, but only one can wear the Wizard’s Crown.

Did someone who hates the author write this book? All the goals, character development and world progression were tossed to the side to find the worst way to expand the storyline. All of the characters were body snatched and bore no resemblance to themselves in previous books. Tell me when a time machine is invented so I can tell myself to not waste the emotional investment.

honestly, Will has become more insufferable. How is it that Will is my least favorite character in the while series, and he's the main character? He's constantly thrust into terrible situations. So why does he never learn anything? His whole story is someone telling him not to do something, him asking why 50 times, him being told all the things that WILL go wrong, him doing it anyways, then him getting angry about the problems HE caused by doing what he was not told to do, then him repeating the above and him being flabbergasted at why these terrible things are happening to him. his response to almost everything is "why," and I'm gonna do it anyway.

Man emotions all over the place. Truly expected a bit of a differnt turn at the end but damn. Extremely glad Wills story isnt done. Also kinda peeved that he didnt use his sound talents the same as the last book. The lightning was epic and loved it but I definitely liked his frost abilities with sound. Seems like that couldve came in handy a number of times.
