Summary

The Journals of Minalan the Spellmonger.

After his eventful trip to the non-magical molopor in the distant domain of Anghysbel, Minalan’s return to civilization and magic finds him challenged by the changes wrought in the crypt of Szal the Yith. With nine distinctive sets of memories, besides his own, Minalan struggles to define himself in a turbulent time.

Things have never been more dire for the nascent Magelaw and the kingdom of Castalshar: the Duchy of Merwyn is encroaching the borders, the pirate realm of Farise is raiding shipping to a dreadful degree, and the dark lord Mycin Amana has captured Darkfaller, the largest castle in the land merely a few dozen miles away from the capital in the heart of the kingdom.

While that brazen act halted the civil war brewing between the ascendent magi and the deteriorating aristocracy of knights, the Spellmonger’s influence and intervention has never been more important. But is he up to the task?

With his brain buzzing with memories and feelings that aren’t his own and a list of vital tasks he must accomplish in order to save the world of Callidore from destruction, Minalan sets pen to parchment to chronicle his days in the heat of the struggle. His journal reveals the internal conflicts he battles, insights into his role and place in history, the difficulties managing his own political rise, and the constant effort of keeping his mind sharp enough to handle it all.

Yet the cracks are showing. People are talking about the Spellmonger, who mutters to himself and indulges in strange practices. His moodiness and distraction are visible for all to see, eroding some people’s confidence in his ability to lead . . . and leading others who sense vulnerability to strike out at the master mage. Violent episodes and fits of melancholy punctuate his struggles with sanity. He details his self-doubts, his petty grievances, his deep brooding about his family and life in general, all as a means to keep himself sane.

But people will whisper, and whisper they do. It’s becoming obvious: the Spellmonger has clearly become the Mad Mage of Sevendor!

Worth the wait?

A shorter piecce than wgat we are used to, but overall quite good. I understand why the author thought it necessary to give us a glimpse into the thoughts of the mad mage. Details had to be outlaid before proceeding with book 15.
A few parts are rushed like the darkfaller rescue and merwyn campaign, but I assume more details will be revealed in the next installment.
Very much looking forward to book 15 of this journey. I've already preordered.
And again John Lee is masterful!

What an author

I cannot wait for Marshall Arcane. Dec cannot come quick enough. I have just completed my 3rd listen through the spellmonger series.

Beautifully written

Definitely a fulcrum for this wonderful tale.
I had to listen twice because it’s so packed tight.
Artfully done.
Primed and ready for Marshal Arcane.
