The Black Magician Trilogy

Thursday. 3.17.11 6:11 am

I am here to do justice for this trilogy after my review of the first book, The Magicians' Guild. The two other books, The Novice and The High Lord, paints a rather different picture from the first book. Why did the author start off with a book that most likely will turn away anyone who'd buy the first book out of curiousity, I don't know. However, I would say that the first book would make an interesting movie

The Novice, is quite interesting, I finished the book in 24 hours. Not to let the speed of my reading paint a picture of a really good book, I had nothing other to do than to read. Nonetheless, the book is much more interesting than the first because the story does not only focus on one character but a few other characters. There is one dull part in the middle of the book but it contains more magic, scandals and surprises for readers. It also gave some insight to a reclusive and mysterious character of the Guild's High Lord, Akkarin, which arouses quite some emotions. I did some predictions in this book and I was quite amused having it come true.

Lastly, The High Lord, well the title says it all. It revolves around the High Lord, Sonea (the beggar girl) and the rules of the Guild. This one, I really had to force myself to put it down when I feel like the part is the beginning to another surprise so that I could catch some sleep. I really cannot say much about this book because I don't want to spoil anyone just in case you'd be interested in reading. All I have to say is I didn't have to play the guessing game to keep me reading.

Overall, the trilogy is an interesting read and I can't believe I finished the books that I thought would've lasted me two weeks in a week. If you're looking for something akin to Harry Potter, you will find it in these two books.

Now I have to find something else to keep me occupied till I return to where my heart is.

I suggest starting with the original 3 if you can
As I understand it, they have quite the spin-off series. It's a whole universe now. I also suggest absolutely ANYTHING by Ted DekKer, especially his trilogies.
