The Iron Trial by Holly Black, Cassandra Clare
4.0
Pardon the caps lock but I AM NOT SURE WHAT I AM SUPPOSED TO FEEL RIGHT NOW!!!!!
After finishing The Iron Trial I am not sure if I think it's awesome book with a really great twist at the end or a book that had great potential but totally screwed it up in the final chapter.
ARGH!
The Iron Trial follows the story of Callum Hunt, a boy who has been taught by his father all his life to fear magic. When he somehow fails his way into the Magisterium, a school where young mages are taught to control their power, Call starts to realize that maybe his father had other motivations and the truths circulating about The Enemy may be different than what everyone thought.
I like a lot about this book. Callum and the other Iron year students are easy to relate to. Black and Clare's view on a magic school was interesting as well. I'm just not sure . . .
I think the only way I can truly figure out how to feel about this book is to see how it fits in with the series overall. I'll read The Copper Gauntlet and get back to everyone.
