I wasn't as big a fan of this volume as I was Stasheff's previous effort in this series. Warlock and Son shows us some of the trials and turmoils that accompany Magnus' quest to find an identity outside of the shadow of his father. To me, it seemed that Magnus' overall surliness was not in character and I doubt that he would have had as much difficulty in establishing his identity as Stasheff's backstory give credit for. The whole book is pretty much dedicated to Magnus getting a hard-on for every piece of ass that wiggles and how his father and family get him out of the troubles that his dick gets him into. This culminates with Magnus blasting off from Gramarye for points unknown with Fess in tow.
The banter just wasn't there in this show more volume and what little social commentary there was was focused around religion (again - apparently a common theme for Stasheff) and the nature of love and monogamous relationships.
