Product Description

Life should have been easier for Sonea, now that Regin ignored her, and the rest of the novices treated her with wary respect, but she cannot forget what she witnessed in Akkarin's underground room.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fine finale to this trilogy., Sep 9 2006
By Ms. H. Sinton "dragondrums" (Ingleby Barwick. U.K.) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Trudi Canavan's concluding book in the 'Black Magician' trilogy is as good, if not better, than its predecessors. Again, the main story centres on the young novice Sonea who is now well through her apprenticeship at the Magicians Guild. Although she has had a rough time with her fellow novices and the teachers, who initially looked down on her because of her upbringing in the slums, Sonea is making progress and is even developing some friendships. All this changes when she discovers the true reason that her guardian, the High Lord Akkarin, is practicing black magic. Sonea has to decide whether to help Akkarin and risk losing everything she has worked for and possibly even risk her life. Meanwhile a threat has arisen from the outcasts of a land where black magic is openly practiced. These outcasts have realised that the magicians of the Guild are weaker than they had thought and have one aim...to oust the magicians and take over Imardin.
Like the previous books in this trilogy, 'The High Lord' is a very readable story that is fast paced enough to keep interest going. Canavan hasn't produced the most original of ideas but nonetheless her style of writing, and the characterisation she has produced, makes this a very enjoyable read. She has also been brave enough not to fall into the trap of a neat, happy ending but has dared to be different.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good story,, Mar 25 2006
I enjoyed the story, though the whole kidnapping thing gets a little weak especially in this day and age. The action was goood and most of the characters seem believalbe though I felt the actions of some didn't quite coincide with who and what they were. You be the judge.

Overall i liked it and can somewhat recommend it to the fantasy readers out there.

If you like books like this one, might I suggest another I've recently come across. The Unsuspecting Mage by Brian S. Pratt. It's another fantasy adventure sure to please. I highly recommend it.
