Magic's Promise is the second installment in the Valdemar: Last Herald-Mage trilogy. It picks up over a decade after the first book. Vanyel visits his family after four years away and confronts many of his own demons as well as real demons in this highly enjoyable follow-up. In the first half of the book, there is really no action, only the encounters with his family and the household employees. Yet Mercedes Lackey writes it really well, with all the immediacy and pacing of a well-crafted adventure novel. I found myself plowing through it as it held me emotionally and intellectually.
