Which was great.

Then I read a recent freebie, Island Magic by Lyndon Hardy. He's the author of the Master of the Five Magics series, and this is set in the same universe.

It was OK, but a bit too much existential angst and not enough magic for my taste really.

Next up: Soul by Tobsha Learner. This was a Tor.com freebie from way back in July 2008!

I must admit I'm not impressed so far, at 40% through. If it doesn't improve by 50% I'm abandoning it.
