MAGIC'S PAWN by MERCEDES LACKEY

Previous review Misunderstood youth who find his true love and other special powers at his aunt's place. Good book. More Young Adult than I thought it would be, but still good. 3-1/2 stars.
Current review - AudiobookI didn't realize when I read the book versus listening to the book how much whining and passing out went on in this book. SPOILER [Yes, Vanyel had a horrible childhood. Yes, Vanyel lost the love of his life at an early age. Yes, Vanyel was filled with magic in a painful way. But does the book have to read as if he's a frail historical romance heroine. (hide spoiler)] I do not plan reading any more of the books. Downgraded to 3 stars.
