A Scholar of Magics
Sunday, May 18, 2008

I liked this one better than the first, A College of Magics. I liked the main character, Samuel Lambert, more than Farris in the first book. Really the two books are hardly related, except that they are both set in the same alternate world and they are faintly connected by both featuring Jane, a witch of Greenlaw who gets involved in this story by trying to help her friend Farris, the warden of the north, get in touch with the new warden of the east. Honestly, the whole warden stuff was kind of confusing and not well explained at all. But I still liked Lambert and his story, so I'm giving it 4/5 stars.
