Publisher's Summary
The latest book in the Audie-nominated Spellmonger series.
Minalan’s Summer Vacation!
What does the most powerful wizard in the world do after the war is over? Despite the hordes of goblins still ready to ravage human lands, King Rard has signed a treaty with them, so Minalan is forbidden from taking advantage of their weakened state. Most would take a well-deserved rest over the summer…but Minalan and his household are busy repaying a favor owed to the tribal Kasari for their help in the war, and the Spellmonger pays his debts. So Minalan spends his summer sneaking 2,000 Kasari children through enemy lines, goblin territory, hostile Wilderlords, and through some of the roughest territory in the Five Duchies toward salvation.
But the Spellmonger soon learns that not even the help of a goddess is going to be sufficient to contend with the realities of the quest. Despite his best efforts and some of the most advanced magic seen since the Magocracy, the march attracts enemies…and far too many friends.
For when the desperate refugees of the war-torn Alshari Wilderlands see the well-fed legions of Kasari march by, they cannot help but follow, even if they have no idea of the destination. Any life is better than the hopeless existence they’ve lived avoiding starvation and the goblins’ stewpot. And the promise of hope the great march of the Spellmonger’s children offers is just too good to pass up. Security and the promise of a brighter future lie just on the other side of the border with the duchy of Castal.
The problem is that the Duke of Castal, Prince Tavard, who is also Minalan's titular overlord, is dead-set against a single Alshari refugee crossing his frontier - and he’s assembled a small army to stop any from doing so. With political pressure high and the very gods maneuvering behind the scenes, it’s going to take some clever magic, some inspired legal maneuvering, and some serious effort to pull off this miracle… but that’s the kind of job the Spellmonger does in Journeymage!

Journeymage
This audible was a little shorter than others in the series yet I found it very well presented. The introduction of familiar and new faces rounded the book out well. The exploration of the divinity was rather well presented and the Spellmonger’s irreverent attitude was most amusing.
In my mind it set up a number of new road paths the Spellmonger will take and doing so enables the reader to have something to look forward to.
Overall I enjoyed this audio book and highly recommend it to others.

Min's magic and good planning wins the day again!
“It’s my choices that have gotten me here in the first place,” I sighed. “Everyone has to be somewhere,” he shrugged. “And where we are is always the result of the steps we’ve chosen to take.” Min does lots of philosophical thinking in this installment in the Spellmonger series as he spends his summer sneaking two thousand Kasari children by enemy lines, goblin territory, hostile Wilderlords, (some of the roughest territory in the Five Duchies) toward salvation. And his thinking proves worthwhile as he plans effectively enough and turning those plans into action whilst dealing with unexpected complications - he makes good choices! I like these sideline stories that connect to the main storyline. Not every book can be battling goblins and this has a bit of everything - battles, romance, politics, interactions with the Gods and good magic while linking to other parts of the series (for instance, reminding us that Min's Aprrentices still have unfinished business with an old enemy). Terry Mancour's writing is good although there are still times I find it repetitive (Min has told us something in a previous chapter and then he tells us again which is fristrating) - but this could be because of the impressive pace of the author's writing. Keep them coming I say! The narration by John Lee in the audible version is flawless as always and he really brings out the humour in the book. Well done - I'm continuing with the series for sure!

Great Instalment
I think this was my favourite instalment so far. There are so many important characters, but I'm really getting a sense for their development as individuals now, and also their development as a team.
