- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It's a pity this was so short!! I devoured it, and would have read 300 pages more. The portal/cluster concept is so cool and original and engaging.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Is there more somewhere? This one was a good solid read with good world building. A nice blend of fantasy and sci fi that really hit the spot.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5An empire that functions because of mages should have motive to coddle them. Two women do not feel coddled.
