I love this fantasy noir book - it was lovely to be back into this world after Maia to be back again with 
Celahar who can be very simliar. He very much undersells his work and accomplishments - and though he always focuses on his work he is not above making a sly comment here and there. It's nice to read him interacting with others and his compassion and hard work being recognized. His relationship with Pel-Thenhior was very sweet and I can't wait to continue to read and see how his relationships develop further.
