Title: Good story but missing much
Review: Like some other reviews, I agree that David Coe tells a good story. I especially like how you get to know his characters by their thoughts/words. Plus, he is descriptive w/o being too windy (take note Stephen Donaldson).The main problem I have is he NEVER explains how this magic works. We know that the mages get their power when they bond with a hawk or owl (owls being more powerful?); but we don't know how this bond gives magic, how it is used, why the birds are necessary, etc...I just started the 2nd book and it doesn't seem to rely on this much, but I can't say for sure yet. If it doesn't, then i believe it will be a better book.
