Magician
by Raymond E. Feist
This was my second time reading Magician, and I feel like I enjoyed it more on a second reading. It was a joy to rediscover the story and characters, and I am eager to continue my readthrough of the Riftwar Cycle.
After Tolkien, Feist is probably my main inspiration for getting into writing, and the author who made me believe it could actually be a viable career option. I know that any time I read one of his books my motivation will be freshly energised.
The characters are infinitely likeable, each with their own arcs, motivations and flaws. They come together to form a complex but satisfying overview of both the world and the plot. The world feels alive and lived in, with a history all its own; you just know this story is part of a much larger world, even without the knowledge of the multitude of books that come after it.
I would absolutely recommend this book, and the entire series. Magician is an outstanding story worth every hour spent reading it.
