It has been quite a while since I read this series. Each book focuses on a different character in the world though so I was able to just jump right back in and start enjoying the world again. The original books in the series focused on Disney princess type characters like Cinderella and Snow White but I am not sure if this one followed that formula because if this story is based on a well-known fairy tale, I certainly can't place it.
For the most part I enjoyed the book. It focused on Katie, a fire magician who hasn't been aware of her powers until she decides to run away from her abusive husband and join Lionel, an air magician, as an assistant in his show. He helps her realize that she has powers and helps train her. Of course, her husband eventually catches up with her and a lot of the plot from this point forward becomes a bit predictable. As a result, it was not a great read, but it was light and enjoyable. I enjoy the series and now that I have returned to it I will probably read the rest of it.
