Summary

Frankly, I think death is the best cure for stupidity.

As Chief of Ixia’s Security, Valek’s work is never done. After rescuing Commander Ambrose with, Yelena, his heartmate’s, help and seeing her off to Sitia, Valek discovers the nefarious scheme to overthrow their country is far more complex and far reaching than anyone could have guessed.

Valek must discover who is continuing with Brazell and Mogkan’s conniving plans, all while dealing with a tense political situation. The Ixian generals are questioning his abilities to keep the Commander safe, and whispers of a possible coup are circulating.

Will Valek be able to survive a plot that seeks to sabotage all he and the Commander have worked for? Also, having opened his heart to love, will Yelena still wish to be with him when all is said and done?

A companion novel to Magic Study, The Study of Magic reveals Valek’s side of the story. Find out what hazards Valek encounters and survives before he and Yelena are reunited once more.

The return of Valek

The second story from the series but again from Valek's point of view. Was really good to see how Janco and Ari's story started, as well as how their relationship with Valek develops. It's really enriching the story seeing what he gets up to when Yelena isn't around. If you loved the original Magic study then this is a must read along side it. Maria has this gift of creating such magnificent worlds that you can lose yourself in. Fun for any teen or young adult who want to enjoy more fantasy books

A worthy listen

Yet another brilliant book by Maria, it’s great to hear the story from Valek’s POV and I could’ve listened to it for many more hours. Seriously can’t wait for the next one!
