It begins with Reina and I absolutely loved her story. I also loved reading more about Kila. Wixs history was super sad. Indeed many of the stories were kind of sad to read about, but I guess that should have been obvious considering these are all leading up to the Bounties and what comes after that. I hate Eagan and I hate what he does in his story, but it was interesting to see his care for Reina and Tresance. Ammon and Kestrals story was interesting, but perhaps my least favourite of the book - it filled in some history, but didn't really do much else really. That said, none of the stories were bad or anything, which is always a risk in short story anthologies. I just liked some more than others.
I read the two main books last year, but I can't remember Lord Mavyn from the books, was he in the books or mentioned at all? Seems like he should have been, but I can't remember it. I really liked him in Kila and Lakis stories.
I hope there will be future Mage-Born books, I would also love more stories about the various siblings - especially Reina and Kila. I look forward to reading more from Kayleigh Nicol.
