A Crown Imperiled by Raymond E. Feist
3.0
I really loved this book but . . .
*SPOILERS*
I had one major problem with it. First, I readily admit that a friend emailed me a copy of the UK ebook. I'm not sure whether this ebook was a bootled, an ARC, or the actual released version, so my problem may be moot when it's released in the US. Let me start by saying, yes, I plan the buy a copy of this book once it's released in the US, but this friend knows I've been a fan of Feist's Riftwar Saga since the 80's.
In Chapter 4, we encounter Pug, Sandreena, and Amirantha on the Island of the Snake Men. We learn what has been going on there and encounter a non-Priest population of the Pantahians. The Pantahian leader of the city Pug and gang help save acknowledges Pug by name.
Later in the book, when the POV changes back to the Island of the Snake Men, Magnus is there and there is no reference to Pug or how Magnus got there. I was majorly confused how Magnus was now there and Pug was nowhere to be seen.
Still later, back on Sorcerer's Isle, Pug encounters Sandreena and Amirantha and is told of their story of the newly discovered offshoot to the Pantahian Serpent Priests and how Magnus is still in their city. Pug is very interested in the new discovery and eager to go there and meet up with Magnus.
I assume that instead of Pug being the character in Chapter 4, it really should have been Magnus, but that is just my assumption.
Other than that, it was a good read for longtime fans of Midkemia!
