This work is undoubtedly exciting and refreshing. Usually, when I read an M/M novel, I'm expecting the romance to overshadow any other plot; however, that was not the case with this one. There are romance elements, but the majority of the novel is a refreshing fantasy novel. I found this novel a mixture of Merlin (the TV show), Lord of the Rings (though the magical object is a pendant in this one), and Founders-Era Harry Potter (wandless magic though).
