"The Second Death of Locke" was heartbreakingly romantic and just the thing to further feed my new found penchant for lady knights.
Mages pull magic from their wells, but Grey's unrequited love for Kier goes beyond the tether between a mage and his hand. She is not only his source of power, but as the missing heir to Locke, she is the source of all power.
I adored the equal devotion between Grey and Kier. The story expressed so beautifully the tension of sacrificial love. The writing was very atmospheric and I felt swept away in the story.
