Shoutout to Ashleigh for sponsoring this episode of The Novice, which wraps up the second book in a very satisfying manner while still leaving me wanting more.
I'm low-key blown away by how powerful Sonea is, even after people are talking about it. But she's in this battle against Regin, barely breaking a sweat, and by the end she almost breaks completely through the inner shield that his guardian had put up for him!
But before we even get there, there's the whole lead-up, which is so tense and drawn-out that I felt like I was going to lose my mind by the time it was over. That's not a complaint, either. It's really well done, just totally nerve-wracking.
Thanks to you all for listening, and I will be seeing you soon with the start of the third book titled The High Lord!
