Review - An Outlaw's Captive by Xander Tracy
My rating:
Army lieutenant Randall is really on in service to please his general father. He may not have the urge to fight, but he has a good head for organization and logistics, so he’s quite happy working behind the front lines of the King’s road project, making sure the army is supplied. Nobody seems to pay him much attention, especially his father, but Randall is used to that. Alan, the “Outlaw Wolf”, has had is brother captured by the army, and he thinks Randall is the perfect bargaining chip to get him back.

My rating:
Elliyan is a thief. A very good thief. He has a bit of advantage in that he can see and penetrate the magical spells that the aristocrats use to protect their precious baubles. He’s supposed to be lying low in the provinces when he spots Prince Rayne in the market place, wearing an irresistible gold medallion with a giant blue stone. Elliyan is bored and ready to take risks he should know better than to take.
