Especially for Dakota and Sarah......

I've started reading the Age of The Five and it's not gripping me quite as much as the Black Magician - but then Black Magician is a lot to live up to so don't take that as a negative comment. It's still a very good read and I am enjoying it but it's taking me a little longer to warm to the main characters than it did Sonea. Alngside the main plot there is an undercurrent of devotion to gods warring with "alternative" healers (putting it into a modern context) which is going to be interesting as it plays out.

I think this might be a slightly darker series - there's a war looming with some nasty sounding characters - but I don't think you'll be sorry if you buy it!
