A review by iancann
The Tethered Mage by Melissa Caruso

4.0

Fast, furious and clever - like an angry owl on a motorbike. This is a very involving tale of fantastical intrigue and politics with a fantasy stand in for 16/17th century Venice

The way that the relationship between the 'falcons' - the tethered mages and their falconers to whom they are tethered is explored makes for thought provoking and powerful story telling as the characters are rounded, interesting and believable and strong female characters all over the shop.

The story is handeld within the book but the future of the series is set up to go forward in what I'm sure will be a terrific way.
