Good descriptive prose, interesting characters and situations, good prologue that excited me about reading book one (The Servant of the Crown).

Awesome battle Strategy...The luck involved , The battle plans that dissolve with the 1st encounter with the enemy ? wishing the battle had precluded a war ,and the short story was an epic novel .

I am super impressed with this one! It was really short, just about 15 pages on kobo app but it able to show the scene of a battle field very vividly (or at least, that what happened in my mind when I read it). I want to try the first book in the series and see whether it's my cup of tea or not.

A quick read with lots of action. A good slice of what the Heir to the Crown stories are like. We also get a feel of who some of the characters are and what drives them.

A short foray into the world of Merceria, as soldiers track down and take on an army of raiders. Can tactics and training rule the day against a larger force?

A well written battle and strategy, and it offered a tantalizing glimpse of the characters and their relationship, which certainly left me wanting to check out the main series. It just felt as though something was missing, and I think a slightly more developed storyline or even just more focus on what was at risk, would have added a bit more to this one.
