The title kind of captures the whole essence of the book. It's about a wizard's butler. Although it wasn't the most intriguing story I've ever read, there was something about it that kept me coming back. I think maybe it was the dangling of magic in small doses, promising for a rewarding pay off which I have to say, the lower score on this is due to the somewhat let down of an ending. It's not bad, but I don't feel like the author fulfilled the promises he made to the full extent. The characters are very well defined, the pace is nice and everything is easy to digest and understand, but for a book with the 2nd main character of a wizard, it certainly lacked flair. I will tune into book 2 but mainly, to see if the story unfolds more rewarding promises- as everything else was enjoyable.
