MY REVIEW
I have read this before but I wanted to pick up and read this again so I can continue on to the other books in this series. We follow Callum in this story as he starts attending the Magisterium, against his father's wishes. Right from the beginning, you can tell that Callum is not your normal pupil and that there's more to him than meets the eye.
This was such a fun read. I enjoyed following Callum and his friends as they start at the Magisterium, learn a few things and have to overcome some obstacles. That said, I found this story to be very predictable with no surprises, which I would have loved to have seen. Even though this story was really fun to read I really don't feel the pull to continue on with this story, so I am going to leave it here for this series.
