Auteur prolifique dans des genres très différents (policier, nouvelles, science-fiction, entre autres), ayant collaboré avec différents auteurs, comme Piers Anthony ou Anne McCaffrey, Mercedes Lackey a connu la notoriété grâce au cycle de Valdemar. Dans cette longue saga (plus de vingt-cinq volumes depuis 1987), les hérauts sont les protecteurs d’un pays menacé par les forces de sorciers maléfiques. Ils sont aidés dans leur tâche par les Compagnons, chevaux blancs magiques dans lesquels se réincarnent les âmes des plus braves hérauts.

    4,0 sur 5 étoiles a well-done MM fantasy book with a teenage main character and lots of magic
    Avis laissé au Brésil le 5 octobre 2024

    It's a very good book. It had been on my list for a long time, and I finally decided to read it—no regrets at all! The characters are well-written and consistent, the world-building is interesting, and the plot is solid. Maybe I went into it with too-high expectations, but that’s on me.

    The story follows a teenager, Vanyel, who is the heir to a rigid and oppressive lord. Vanyel doesn’t want to be a fighter or a lord; he dreams of becoming a bard. However, his father pushes him to his limits, eventually deciding to send him away to be raised by his aunt, one of the heralds (royal mages).

    Vanyel is a sensitive and confused teenager, trying to find his place in the world. He feels lonely and inexperienced, and this is reflected in his thoughts and decisions in a very well-done, believable way. It's really nice to follow his journey, and his insecurities, self-doubts, and dark feelings are engaging and consistent (for the most part). My only critique would be about two moments when his behavior changes too quickly: first, when he accepts his feelings toward his future lover, and second, when he regrets running away from his magical trainers. His previous angst seems to disappear too fast, and I found it hard to believe that he would forgive his burned hands so easily without comparing them to his broken arm.

    Overall, I really enjoyed the book. I'm not completely sure if I'll continue the series, but if you’re looking for a well-done MM fantasy book with a teenage main character and lots of magic, you should definitely pick this one up!

    I was looking for m/m fantasy books when I found out about Magic's Pawn, it is more or less what I was looking for. I really enjoyed reading about the characters, especially the protagonist, there is a lot of angst and introspection. On the other hand the plot is not very good, very slow and mostly concentrated in the last few chapters, I think it was a bit rushed, however I cared more about the characters relationships so it didn't bother me at all.

    This is the first book I'm reading from Mercedes Lackey that was recommended by a friend of mine, and it's the first one that's more character driven than other plots I've come across. At first, I hate Vanyel because he was a whiner and would not shut up, and then I find out that he has horrible parents who try to force them into their ideals of what a man should be like and then he meets Tylendel, his soul mate. Poor Vanyel. It didn't take me long to really feel for this character. Losing so much while trying to harness his powers. I would give him a hug.

    The only thing that I didn't like about this book is that the chapters are too long for me, but that didn't stop me for enjoying it. I have read the second one in the trilogy and I will give you my thoughts with that one as well. Until next, Seacrest out!

    5,0 sur 5 étoiles One of my faves!
    Avis laissé aux États-Unis le 21 septembre 2015

    I love all of the series and singles that make up the entire Valdemar saga, and this one has always been one of my favorites. Vanyel is a character that I think, in some way, is a universal character that we can all identify with in one way or another.

    Vanyel Ashkevron is the eldest son of a rather minor noble in the out country. His father is a rigid man, believing very firmly in certain things. And if you do not fall into his idea of what should be or what is right, then you are somehow lacking. This describes the relationship between Vanyel and his father for most of his childhood. His brothers and cousins, while not stupid, were far more interested in weaponswork and women than intellectual pursuits. Vanyel was intelligent and a gifted musician that took after his mother far more than his father. None of these things raised him in the eyes of his father. His mother, however, celebrated most of these things. She was a flightly woman who knew all too well how to play all of the "womanly" games and she loved having a son who could entertain her so well. However, she spent a lot of time throwing her lady's maid at him, despite his repeated assurances that he was not interested, often creating a bit of a mess for them both.

    When Vanyel's father finally tires of trying to change him, he sends him to his aunt in Haven, a rather brusque woman who is a Herald. Vanyel knows, even as he lives the prison that ihis own home has become, that he is really only trading one prison for another. But things at Haven aren't what he expects and his life changes so very much.

    I absolutely love the blend of characters in this book. No matter what your life story is, there is a character in this book that is relatable. No two characters are the same, giving a rich tapestry of characters in a wonderful story. I have heard many complain about the rather whiny attitude of Vanyel throughout the book. They are not wrong; he is whiny. But it is totally appropriate for the story. He is a young teenager, a fact easy to forget, and the reality is that he has a lot to whine about. I love that the character isn't portrayed to be perfect, that he is portrayed as realistic.

    My Recommendation: As with every book in the Valdemar series, I am in love with this book. Such a wonderful epic read!

    Book 1 of 3 in this series. Once I was about half way through this book I got the other two as I knew that this was a series which I would enjoy. I would recommend this series to anyone. Just a very good entertaining read.
