This is Jean Johnson's first book. She tells a great story. She has also laid out a path for a terrific new series. There was a bit too much info in the beginning of the story, meant to set up the series. It basically surrounds 8 brothers who are known as "The Sons of Destiny", born in 4 sets of twins in a different universe where magic thrives.
The problem was trying not to get confused as she introduced 8 men, pointing out each of their names, each of their specific magical gifts, each of their personalities, each of their physical descriptions, and which brother is a twin to which other. Another important detail to note is that each brother has a prophesied destiny. Some have positive destinies, others are said to be cursed. About half way through the book, I was able to keep most of the details straight.
For those who would like a head-start, here is a quick reference to The Sons of Destiny. Otherwise, scroll down for a specific review of "The Sword."
1. Saber "The Sword": Oldest of the 8 brothers. A master magician ("Mage") in the field of swords. His prophesied curse: If he ever finds true love, disaster will fall upon his land. Heir to a Count title that would have made him ruler of his native land of Katan, if the brothers had not been exiled by citizens who were afraid of the curse.
His Twin-
2. Wolfer "The Wolf": Second oldest. A Mage in the field of hunting, he can turn himself into a wolf. Largest and most muscular of the brothers. His personality is that of a gentle giant. He wears a braided lock of hair around his wrist; a gift from the woman he loved in Katan before the exile.
3. Dominor "The Master": Third oldest. A Mage with multiple gifts, he is said to be the one who will control his own destiny. Fiercely competitive and a perfectionist in all things. It is prophesied that he will meet a woman who is his match.
His Twin-
4. Evanor "The Song": Fourth oldest. A Mage of sound. Anyone can contact him from anywhere in the universe by singing out his name. He can then respond and have a conversation with his caller. He sings with a pure and beautiful voice. His personality is gentle and mild.
5. Trevan "The Cat": Fifth in the line. A Mage of animals, he can turn himself into many different beasts and birds, but his favorite is the one that matches his own personality: the cat. Enjoys seducing and flirting with women. Skilled in building furniture and other things from wood.
His Twin-
6. Rydan "The Storm": Sixth in line. A Mage of night and weather. A mystery to his family, he chooses to only leave his room during the night hours. Always dressed in black, his hair and eyes are also midnight black. Rarely speaks or shows emotion. Can conjure storms at will. It is prophesied that if he falls in love, the woman will destroy him at dawn.
7. Koranen "The Flame": Second youngest. A Mage of fire. Can conjure flames from his hands. Can also magically heal burn wounds. Uses fire to create magic lamps that light the brothers' castle. Can battle dragon-like beasts with his flames. Easy tempered and friendly.
His Twin-
8. Morganen "The Mage": Youngest Son of Destiny. Known simply as "The Mage" because he is by far the most powerful and gifted magician in the family- possibly even the universe. Can transport people and objects through different galaxies. Is a bit feared by his brothers because of his power, yet loved because of his giving spirit and kind temperament. Has taken the burden of the prophesied curses upon his own shoulders, working endlessly to help each brother find true love and happiness despite their curses.
