I finished reading this book today (2/9). I enjoyed the story of Prince Aruther and Princess Anita preparing for their wedding. As well as the Duke's relationship with Jimmy the Hand. A few things bothered me which caused my lower rating of 7/10. The side story of magician Pug (which I loved in the first book) seemed in the way or just there to update the series. I thought Anita was suspended in time for too long while Aruther searched for silverthorn. At times it seemed wrong that Jimmy knew so much more than the others. I get that he was street smart, but that doesn't include cave knowledge.
