Criticism Of Books Sandry's Book (Circle of Magic #1)

A cute little YA Fantasy novel. It feels like more a long introduction to the characters and world than an actual novel. They're all kids who have had a rough go in life, and that contributes to the book's slow pace. They all have difficulty trusting one another and their teachers, so it takes us a good bit to get to know them. World building was about average for YA Fantasy; it does assume you already have a grasp on the Fantasy genre. The magic system seems neat, and I like the concept of the

So, I love this series. LOVE it. I like everything Pierce has written to some extent (haven't read the white tiger stuff yet), but it's always been this series (the Emelan universe) above all others. If I ever had to choose what one series to take to a desert island, with nothing else to read for the rest of my life, this would be the series. Over Harry Potter, Hunger Games, whatever.This book especially is the one I've read the most over the years (probably in part because the rest of the

So nice. Really excited to read the trouble/adventure the kids get into in the next book.

Like so many readers, I adored Tamora Pierce's Alanna books. Strangely, I've never been able to get into her other series, of which there are many that are beloved by readers everywhere. The first Circle of Magic book was, alas, no exception.The book opens with us meeting the four different kids who find themselves rejected by their respective societies and will ultimately be brought together by the enigmatic mage Niko. It's an engaging opening and there's lots to appreciate about these

This was not my first encounter with this particular Circle of Magi book. I had originally read it when I was 14 or so, and wanted more Tamora Pierce novels (I had read The Song of the Lioness Quartet and Trickster's Choice by this point). My mom, I believe, picked up this. It still contains my sketchy signature at the top of the inside cover. I didn't like it. Not at 14, when I wanted more romance, more maturity, and didn't want to read about a bunch of kids playing around with magic and having

I don't think this is good, exactly - but I love the ideas. That magic can be overlooked because it's part of something mundane is a great idea, and to take that a step further and show how magic can itself be treated like those mundane things is innovative and exciting, to the point where I actually don't mind that the entire novel is setup.

Sandrys Book is the first book of Tamora Pierces Ive read that wasnt set in Tortall, and I enjoyed it very much. It was a compact, precise little book all about people coming together. And, you know, magic and stuff. Fair warning, though. My reading of the book probably suffered because it was my second book in the 24 Hour Readathon a couple of weeks ago. I was highly buzzed on coffee for the first half of the book, and during the second I was so hungry I thought I was going to fall over, die,
