Chapter One
Chapter One
I was in hell.
No, that wasn’t right. I’d been to hell, and it was better. Like, by a lot.
And that was before Pritkin started to swear.
John Pritkin was an irascible war mage, the magical equivalent of a platoon, with a mouth that would make a sailor blush—and that was on a good day. This was not a good day. His usually spiky blond hair was extra spiky from the cold, frozen into pointy tips that looked like they’d stab you if you got too close. His expression matched them when he turned around to look at me out of furious green eyes.
“What?” I said.
“You didn’t mention them!” he accused, from the high perch of the coachman’s seat.
“Them? Them who?”
I leaned forward, but couldn’t see anything from here. I also couldn’t hear, with another icy blast howling down the cavernous riverbed far below and whipping by our coach, which was barely clinging to a narrow bridge as it was. Pritkin swore some more, this time at the horses, who bucked and caused us to rock alarmingly. I was treated to a brief, dizzying view over the railless side of the bridge: rushing water studded with shards of ice, snow-covered rocks sparkling in weak winter sunlight, dead looking trees stretching their skeletal limbs skyward as if grabbing for us, trying to stab, to drag us down, to—
And then we righted again, with a thud and a shake, and I bit my tongue hard enough to taste blood.
