![]() ![]() ![]() Yes, it was very difficult for me not to draw comparisons to the work of Tolkien. It was the usual “world in danger and only one person can save it” type story, with an epic battle here and there, a bit of intrigue at the King’s court and a magical item that changes the person wielding it and which obviously should have just stayed hidden. Two years later, Pug and his best friend, Tomas, make a discovery that changes their lives and the world as they know it, and plunges their kingdom into a war that seemingly has no end.įull of action and set at a reasonably fast pace, I found the overall storyline to be a bit same same but different at times. I had always imagined that I would love this book, so who knows why it took me so long to get around to reading it, especially as my imagination was correct – I did love it! The plot centres around a young boy named Pug, who at the age of 13, is selected to be apprenticed to the magician, Kulgan. The world created by Feist, is a medieval one, full of magicians and sword fights, knights and princesses, with an “alien” invasion thrown in for good measure. This is exactly what happened when I FINALLY read Magicianby Raymond E. I honestly don’t think that there is anything much better than reading a book that you have wanted to read for years (but haven’t for whatever ridiculous reason), and being completely enthralled, overwhelmed and many other amazing descriptive words. ![]()
