I have read a bit more and it gets better. Because now his foot looks okay but is in constant pain (unlike before the 'healing' when it was fine), and he's told it will keep hurting until he's learned the lesson. Which is something about confidence and fear of failure and, as far as I can tell, learning to kill without feeling bad about it.
because obviously chronic pain is all in the mind, and a learning experience.

The books are a series, and I gave up buying them a couple of books after this one. Actually I think the next couple of books were book club freebies so I gave up buying them with this one. The only good thing you can say about them is they're consistent. You know exactly the shape of the plot before you start one.
I has already a box of books waiting for me to send them somewhere. So far I've only managed to part with three. Although to be fair some of them are still here because I would feel bad letting someone else fall for it. There's one book on magic that iirc manages to be extensively plagiarised and yet very very wrong.
