In this chronicle of the early history of Valdemar, Mercedes Lackey's bestselling world, a thirteen-year-old orphan named Magpie escapes a life of slavery in the gem mines when he is chosen by one of the magical Companion horses of Valdemar to be trained as a Herald. Thrust into the center of a legend in the making, Magpie discovers talents he never knew he had--and witnesses the founding of the great Heralds' Collegium.

I was very excited to see that Mercedes Lackey would be returning to Valdemar, and this book did not disappoint. Fun characters, adventure, and a world I've grown to love and enjoy visiting. My only real frustration is that I read the book so quickly, so now I have no new Valdemar reading until the next book comes out (well, there's that short story anthology that comes out soon; that should be interesting).
