Wild Magic by Tamora Pierce
3.0
I recently reread the Immortals quartet after what was probably a five or six year break. What surprised me the most about Wild Magic is that it was clearly for middle-grade readers, which is what I was when I began reading them.
The quality of writing, however--and for that matter, of the story and of the characters as well--has not diminished. I may have been able to whip through each of the Immortals' installments, but I was still very impressed with the structure of the story and the fullness of each character. I found myself sympathizing with Daine, the main character, as she struggled to adjust to her new life. I fell in love with the supporting characters as well--everyone from Cloud and Tahoi to Numair and Kalasin. (And, of course, Alanna.)
