I'm reading this trilogy now because I am on holiday and because my classmate loaned me these books long enough, I decided to finish reading and return them to him at the start of my last semester of my degree. This book is about a beggar girl who have found magical powers and three-quarters of the book is about her flee from the grasps of the Magician Guild because she believes all magicians to be bad people and they intend to kill her. Magicians and magic was thought to be something for the aristocrats, as all magicians are members of the Houses, as never has anyone from the slums show any indication of having magical powers nor have any existing magicians went looking for signs of latent magical power. The Guild is looking for her because if she is left unchecked, her powers will become uncontrollable and she possess as a great threat towards to city and the lives of people living around her and the King does not want anyone with magical power being outside the power of the Guild. The Purge is an event whereby beggars are being driven out of the city every winter and having to survive through winter without or little food and shelter. At times, the Purge takes place with the help of Magicians who builds invisible barriers that keep the Guards safe from acts of protests from the beggar youths. She was, of course, taken into custody by the Magicians' Guild and taught how to control her power and how a Magician tried to gain her trust to change her view about the Guild and magicians in general. The book ended with the introduction of an issue or cause that will be present throughout the trilogy. The book is a little draggy... in the middle.It failed to build the excitement to keep readers unable to put the book down. The ending isn't particularly exciting either, like The Horus Heresy series where you absolutely get hooked at the end even if it puts you to sleep somewhere in the middle. Those who love reading Harry Potter might be a little disappointed with this book because it doesn't focus much on magic but there is just enough to satisfy the crave. I would recommend this book to those who likes to read books about friendship, forming bonds and deception with cool sips of magic every now and then. Then again, what books are not about the bonds from one person with another and finding oneself? I will finish the trilogy and give a review as a whole.. Maybe it'd be better... 3 Comments. thank u for the review. luckily i didn't buy the book. i was about to since i'm into stories about magic or rather supernatural powers.
