Rating: 3 out of 5.

This series started of really nice with the Paper Magician, but in this third book, The Master Magician, Ceony seriously started to annoy me. Her tricks maybe weren’t exactly new – rushing into danger and just hoping that everything will work out in the end just to name something – but I would have expected her to have some growth in the series. After all, she is about to finish her apprenticeship.

She is rather a bit too special, with her figuring a way around one of the main points of the magic system – being bound to a certain type of material. This however, is only the side quest in this novel, which was sort of a shame because the real villain wasn’t so interesting.

Still, it was a nice and quick read – a snackbook I would call it. And I really liked the idea of transferring magic into paper by origami.

    1. =) For those moments where you just want something uncomplicated which reads fast, I find them very useful snacks…

The author

After a day of work, Marjolein likes to wind down with a book or two, or five! Unapologetic reader of at the very least three books at any given time, she apparently is unable to settle on a favorite genre.

She might pause her audiobook just long enough to discuss books online.
