Book Description

I don't know why there's so little info for this book, but I liked the book, so here's what the back of the book says about it: ONCE A PRINCE, ALWAYS A PRINCE Once again, instead of writing music, working spells, or training his apprentice, Bard Alaire is asked to turn his hand to diplomacy. Because he's the only man the king, his brother, can trust to investigate the death of the previous Ambassador, Alaire has been made Ambassador to the troubled kingdom of Suinomen. Once before Alaire was in Suinomen--and barely made it out alive from its Prison of Souls. Now he will face high seas, low magic, and kidnapping by giant spiders--and that's before he even gets there....

It's pretty good.

EfR is pretty entertaining, and I guess fast-paced, but I think Alaire got away pretty easily in this story. And I'm disappointed that our one and only Dark Elf Bard wasn't in the story. But it's still great, and I recommend it for everyone.
