About this ebook

The old wizard wasn't exactly happy with Valder, who'd led his enemy to his hut. Now hut and magical supplies were destroyed. But he'd promised the young scout a magic sword to get him safely back to his own lines -- and a much-enchanted sword Valder would get!

The resulting sword gave perfect protection -- sometimes! It could kill any man -- or even half demon. In fact, once drawn, it had to kill before it could be put down or sheathed.

Army wizards told Valder that the sword would keep him alive until he'd drawn it 100 times; then it would kill him! It wouldn't prevent his being wounded, maimed or cut to pieces, but it wouldn't let him die. If his new job as Chief Assassin for the army didn't make him use up the spell, he'd be practically immortal.

Not bad, it seemed. There had to be a catch somewhere.

There was -- and it was a lulu!

The writing style of this book leaves very little to the imagination; descriptions are literal and mundane. This, paired with stiff and unrealistic dialogue makes the book seem as though it were written for a kindergartener. Could not make it past the second chapter. Needless to say, this was not my cup of tea.

I love this book. Lawrence Watt Evans has created a enjoyable immersive world I can believe exists on an alternate plane and get lost in.
