Only read 30% of it.

I liked the setting, the "Magi" was a bit cliché but could works, my main problem was with Quinn personality ? Supposedly she had over 17 masters and every time made them have a such bad time that she was sold again, but then here she's very submissive with Lazarus, yes they have a pact but still, I expected more.

As the author says, this is a dark fantasy, emphasis on dark. However, the sexy scenes were not what got me, it was the portrayal of violence and the characters inner monologues that creeped me out a bit. Not a huge fan, but it is well written, descriptive with a well paced plot.
