“Part high fantasy and part political intrigue, Luck in the Shadows makes a nice change from the usual ruck of contemporary sword-and-sorcery. Won't stop me from ordering the next one, if she writes one. The White Road was quite weak and for most of it I would have sworn someone else wrote it. "Awesome series I found by accident looking through the library for a new series. But fortune is as unpredictable as Alec’s new mentor, and this time there just might be luck in the shadows. Before long he and Seregil are embroiled in a sinister plot that runs deeper than either can imagine and that may cost them far more than their lives if they fail.

Soon Alec is traveling roads he never knew existed, toward a war he never suspected was brewing. And when he offers to take on Alec as his apprentice, things may never be the same for either of them. Spy, rogue, thief, and noble, Seregil of Rhiminee is many things-none of them predictable. But the thing he hadn’t counted on was his cellmate. When young Alec of Kerry is taken prisoner for a crime he didn’t commit, he is certain that his life is at an end. This first installment in the Nightrunner series is brimming with magic and intrigue.
