If you can put up with the 100+ pages of them wandering around angsting and reinforcing what a bad man the antagonist is, you'll find the story, once it gets going, turns out to be all right if you like basic chosen one/quest-type stories. It would be slightly more tolerable if the story was plot-driven and didn't take almost half the book to actually start. Said friends are little better, even the soldiers and mercenary. The main character is twenty going on twelve, complete with such overwhelming concerns such as whether his friends will still like him when they find out he talks to ghosts. I don't know if the book was miss-marketed or what, but this is definitely not the dark fantasy hinted at on the cover. With even the protagonist using what's generally considered dark/evil magic, I expected a dark, gritty fantasy. One does not see necromancers as the good guys very often, or at all, really. The cover is excellent, the summary intriguing. Pinterest (for Morgan and Gail) I'm usually not very critical of books outside of whether I liked them or not, but The Summoner is an exception to this rule. In addition to the online sites listed below, you can find me on Martin is also Morgan Brice, which is her pen name for urban fantasy MM paranormal romance.
