Korin has found a new home and new friends, and the past seems safely behind him. But there are reasons Teriad never stayed in one place.

Korin never wanted the attention of other wizards, and he certainly doesn't want any part in wizard politics, but he may not have a choice as people in the city start to get hurt. Ádan may be able to help, but only if Korin can accept the truths he learned about Ádan and his friends.

As threats around them grow, Korin and Ádan both must decide where their loyalties lie, and if ancient obligations will overwhelm their devotion to each other.

Twisted Loyalties by Barbara J. Webb is a visceral and intriguing sequel to the first book in the series. What I enjoyed the most is how the story begins quietly but quickly delves into the relationship between Korin and Adan; how they interact with each other, the secrets both keep from the other out of protectiveness and the intrigues around them.

I really like that we get Adan's point of view in this book. It fills out the story and allows us to understand more about the world and the Knights. The twists and turns, the way magic works are riveting. I found the interactions between Korin and the knife absorbing. The ending was absolutely a surprise.

If you like fantasy with gay romance, I highly recommend this series. Not only is the story visceral and intriguing, but the relationship is well-written with beautiful love scenes. The intrigue is spectacular and the magic is unique. I can't wait for the next novel.

Rating: 5 out of 5 healings ~~ Andrea Rittschof
