The Exile And The Sorcerer (2006) - Plot & Excerpts
The first fanning of white hair at his temples accentuated his sharp features. Laugh lines around his mouth spoke of an active sense of humour, but he was not currently smiling. The man, Verron, was aware that the quality of his clothing was attracting attention. The eyes of stall holders lit up as he approached. To his mind, the traders of Torhafn were no more honest than the pickpockets who were also sizing him up. Both groups were anticipating a well-filled purse, but Verron was far too experienced to fall prey to the cheap tricks of market thieves. He had seen it all before many times, although this did not mean he felt comfortable with his surroundings. During his career as a Protectorate trader, Verron had been to many of the less attractive spots the world had to offer, yet Torhafn never ceased to impress him with its corrupt squalor. If a more sordid town existed anywhere in the world, Verron had no desire to see it, and particularly not after nightfall.
