Book Description:
"The Innocent Mage is come, and we stand at the beginning of the end of everything."

Being a fisherman like his father isn't a bad life, but it's not the one that Asher wants. Despite his humble roots, Asher has grand dreams. And they call him to Dorana, home of princes, beggars -- and the warrior mages who have protected the kingdom for generations.

Little does Asher know, however, that his arrival in the city is being closely watched by members of the Circle, people dedicated to preserving an ancient magic.

Asher might have come to the city to make his fortune, but he will find his destiny.

First book of two of "Kingmaker, Kingbreaker", which was originally meant as a single novel. (I think she may be writing more books to follow these two.) Not bad for a first series, and very different from her next two (The Godspeaker Trilogy and Rogue Agent). I see a lot of development in her writing as she grows in to it, but they do remain on the level of pleasant "potato chip" fantasy.

I really enjoyed this. The writing just drew me in. The dialogue was clever without being shallow, the problems were big without being pretentious and the characters were very real. I look forward to reading more by Miller.

The book starts off with some excitement but gets rather boring after Asher accepts this high prestigious position working with the Prince. Anyways the author just goes on and on about Asher's training, getting quarters and blah blah. I kept trying to read it, but nothing was really going on in the story.

I tend not to finish books that have these "slow" sections. The ending could be every good, but I didn't finish the book.

Very good. Smooth transitions. Could read this one straight through if I had time to do such things.
