I cannot recommend this book, it is well written for the most part, but for a book about a beast master the lead character is a moron who does absolutely nothing for his beasts. There are at least three ways for him to pass along skills to the beasts but after the beginning he has done nothing, nothing, yet he has no problem whipping up skill books for every rando. Extremely disappointing, I cannot figure out what the writer is thinking with regard to this, is it just lazy and sloppy writing. Very frustrating if you are a fan of taming type novels.
