THE OUTSTRETCHED SHADOW: The Obsidian Trilogy: Book One
In the captivating world conjured by veteran Lackey ( Exile's Honor ) and classical scholar Mallory ( Merlin: The Old Magic ) in this first of a high fantasy trilogy, there are three types of magic, each of which has its own rules, limits and variables. But it is the Wild Magic—anathema to Armethalieh, "the Golden City of the Bells," and considered by its residents to be heresy and truly evil—that has the most unusual aspects, for its practitioners must bargain for what they need and pay an often high price for power. Kellen Tavadon, son of Arch-Mage Lycaelon of Armethalieh, has been raised (indoctrinated, actually) to believe that High Magick is the only true magic and that his father and the Council of Mages have the final word. But Kellen isn't so sure. He's always been a bit suspicious of the council's tight control over the city. One day, while playing hooky from his lessons in magery, Kellen finds a set of books about Wild Magic. He knows he shouldn't touch them. To open the books and read them is to court a death sentence, no matter if your father is the Arch-Mage. But Kellen can't resist. And thus, after a bit of a slow start, Kellen sets down a road he never expected to take, on a journey of dire importance to both humans and nonhumans (the latter including elves, unicorns and other enchanting creatures). The narrative speeds to the end, avoiding a jarring halt while leaving the reader satisfied and wanting to know more. (Oct. 22)

Reviews for "Chiba's Bakeries and Pastry Shops: Indulging in Sweet Magic"
1. Jennifer - 2/5 stars - I was really disappointed with the "Magical Taste of Chiba" restaurant. The ambiance was dull and uninviting, and the service was extremely slow. The food was also nothing special. The dishes lacked flavor and creativity, and I felt like I could have gotten better food at a much cheaper price. Overall, it was a forgettable dining experience that I would not recommend.
2. Mark - 1/5 stars - I had high hopes for the "Magical Taste of Chiba" based on the reviews I read, but I was sorely disappointed. The portion sizes were incredibly small, and the prices were exorbitant. The taste of the food was nothing to write home about, and I left the restaurant feeling hungry and unsatisfied. The staff was also impolite and inattentive. I won't be returning to this establishment.
3. Sarah - 2/5 stars - My experience at the "Magical Taste of Chiba" was underwhelming, to say the least. The restaurant was crowded and noisy, making it difficult to have a conversation. The menu options were limited, and the food took longer than expected to arrive. When it finally did, the presentation was lackluster, and the flavors didn't impress me. The overall experience left me feeling unimpressed and uninterested in revisiting.
4. Michael - 3/5 stars - I had mixed feelings about my visit to the "Magical Taste of Chiba." While the decor was visually appealing and the staff was friendly, the food was mediocre. The flavors were average, and I expected more from a restaurant with such high praise. The prices were also higher than they should have been for the quality of the food. It wasn't terrible, but it wasn't worth the hype either.
