A review by constantin
The Magician by Michael Scott

5.0

I think this is the most interesting book series I've read so far. The author has created a whole new universe based on real historical figures, history and ancient lore, in such a way that reading it makes you think it could be actually plausible !
The character development is one of the finest I've seen in books of this genre, the plot is brilliant, almost every chapter ends on a cliffhanger or a very important part of the story and the plot twists as so well made that you almost never guess what will happen next. Almost every time that I thought "ah this will happen it is so obvious" I was just surprised with the unfolding of the story.
I wish I could get selective amnesia to read this all over again as if it was the first time.
