Starbrat por John Morressy
A pretty standard dark entertainment. a young adult kidnapped by slavers escapes. He's sold for gladiatorial combat purposes.He has a lot of control issues.
I've reviewed the first book in this volume at FanLit:
A Voice for Princess is the first volume of John Morressy’s KEDRIGERN CHRONICLES, a series of novels and short stories about the reclusive wizard Kedrigern. In this first novel, Kedrigern retires from the wizard guild because he’s mad at his colleagues for schmoozing with alchemists (whom Kedrigern considers beneath barbarians on the human worth scale). Accompanied by his ugly but loyal house troll, Spot (whose vocabulary consists entirely of the word “Yah!”), off Kedrigern goes to build himself a solitary home on Silent Thunder Mountain.
Eventually Kedrigern becomes lonely and decides he’d like a wife. After a couple of unsuccessful courting efforts, he stumbles upon a beautiful and intelligent princess who has been turned into a frog. What luck! Kedrigern’s area of expertise is counterspells, but ... Read More:

Thank you very much to the kind person that took this to my favorite home for used books. I fell in love with Kedrigern the moment he made a debut in The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, and am happy to include this one with the others.
John Morressy took his original short stories, and knit them together in this first novel, with additional material. His sense of humor, and turn of phrase, endeared me to him then, and it still does.
