About this listen

What's a little intrusive, magical psychotherapy between friends?

After the events of his last quest, the Arkane Academy for the Gifted and Strange have concluded that Steve Firestone's patron is the source of a great curse that has plagued his family for centuries.

But there's a chance to fix it-if Steve opens his mind to be ravaged by an ancient dragon shifter who dabbles in psychotherapy and curse-wrangling. If Steve cannot rid himself of this curse, then his days with the Academy and his friends are over and he'll be hunted to the far corners of the world.

A fallen paladin is not treated with much sympathy.

It should be a stroll in the park. Right? Not when a brutal vampire lord decides to pay Steve a visit and Devon, the cleric of their party, is mysteriously missing. With challenges coming at him from all angles, Steve will have to dig deep if he's to support his friends and resist the very real threat of having his brains turned to jam.

Having enjoyed the first two books I look forward to the third installment.
Sadly the amount of continuity errors spoilt it. His come was briefly a swiss army knife and the sweatshirt awarded at the end of the last book swapped from jacket to sweatshirt again. The acid hydra head suddenly wasn't acid as he was ' immune from disease' and the comb/swiss army knife destroyed by the hydra is back in the closing moments.
Doesn't a book get proof read before release? If so, author and proof reader needs more attention to detail.
Very disappointed sadly as the story itself was still good

Must have rushed it out
