The Human Familiar

Fantasy. Young Adult Fiction. HTML:

While Bannen had every intention of finding adventure, being yanked through a magical portal two continents away isn't quite what he imagined happening. For that matter, being magically bound to a mage-in-training hadn't ever crossed his mind.

Being the first human familiar ever summoned in Corcoran? Not on his to-do list.

Rena certainly needs all of the help that she can get, as her magic is very different, inhibiting her of the normal shields and protections. Everyone says her summoning a human familiar is a mistake, that she needs to break the bond and send Bannen back.

But Bannen doesn't like this idea, not one iota. Renata Rocci has the magic of a Grim Reaper, the heart of a lion, and a body too frail to keep up with either. She can face assassins; meddlesome mages; politicians; and legendary, nightmarish monsters without flinching. Without losing and that's sexy as sin.

This is definitely not the adventure he signed up for.

It's far, far better.

This was quite nice. The story meanders a bit, with the two main characters solving various problems. Most side characters are supportive, giving the book a good-natured vibe and the two main characters respect each other and get along. ( )

Novel

The plot arc hits its end...and then it keeps going to a new end you weren’t aware it needed.

Some of the elements are juvenile in construction, but everything moves well and the prose is inventive without being precocious. The world-building suffered at times. The characters were well written and helped to cover world-flaws.

A few proofreading errors, maybe one per chapter.

I will read the next novel in the series. Not a resounding recommendation, but a serviceable read with some potential. ( )
