Mystic and Rider, A Favorite!


Trouble is brewing in the land of Gillengaria, and the King decides to send out his most trusted people to take the temperature of the land and report back. Does it matter that they seriously distrust each other? Nope. So Kings Riders Tasye and Justin are joined by the mystic Senneth and her mystic friends Kirra and Donnal, and if they pick up another mystic on the way, who cares?

The good stuff: Senneth is completely committed to justice, and she fights for those who have no power to fight for themselves. She also graciously puts up with Tasye, and more so Justin's distrust. Honor is important to Tasye and Justin, and no matter how much they dislike mystics, they do their jobs.

The not so hot stuff: Not really anything startling.

What I like about it: This book (and the others) are so full of warm relationships. Okay, it doesn't start that way, but you know it will end that way. As they journey, everyone discovers each other's strengths, and learn to respect them, and they become friends. I enjoy reading this book because it's like I become part of a small family of friends and the adventures they have.
