I'm finishing the chapter XVII and a question (yes ! another one !) comes into my mind :
I do not know what exactly is a swordmage ! I understood what Geran was able to do but I saw no description of this art.
Did I miss something in the novel ?
Is it explained before ending the book ?

EDIT : you may think I'm a slow reader but do not forget I was not English born and I do not read only this book at the moment.
Thanks a lot.

EDIT 2 : I really love this novel !

A Swordmage is someone like a Bladesinger (only they don't have to be an elf)...basically combining the use of magic and a sword (especially magical spells that complement fighting with a sword)
