Four tales of men who refuse to be molded... Swordwick is the story of a prince who dares to wield both blade and wick—until he must pretend to be something else for the sake of his sister. Odd Wick tells the tale of a wick of extraordinary genius who wants nothing more than the ordinary Captain serving as his escort. Songwick is the tale of a wick of incredibly rare ability, desperate to escape a miserable past and find a bright future... Flamewick relates the story of a man as fierce as the flames he controls, until that which he holds most dear is stolen from him, and one man alone is not enough to get it back.

Just bought it-- yes!! *holes up to read*------3.75 Megan Derr does this truly wonderful thing where she plays around with the characters and leads you to believe some characters are "evil" then proving later on that they're not.Unfortunately in this book, even then, it did not full endear them to m...
