It seems like an interesting book, it sounds like my kind of book! I hope can get my hands on it, the magic combined with murder and with a girl as the protagonist. Great story and review!

A fantasy book containing magic and murder is intriguing. I assume since Delvin goes on a journey, he is found innocent of murder. Thank you for your review.

I have read and reviewed this book a few weeks ago. I liked it. I mean, it had magic and I loves magic.
Thanks for your review anyway.

"The Magician's Secret" by Charles Townsend begins with the magician Borlock teaching Delvin some tricks. Soon Delvin embarks on a journey to save Hengel from war. I like that the book is moderately fast paced with excellent descriptions of different places.

It seems like an interesting book however, I might not be in the mood for magic and fantasy. I think the writer can work more on character description too.

I hope Delvin gets cleared of any wrongdoing. I'll check this book of magic and fantasy out.

I don't think that there is any harm in providing minimal descriptions of your characters as this gives the reader permission to imagine them however they want! You can picture yourself as the protagonist if you really wanted to.

Worlds of magic have always been fascinating to me. I like how writers can create such parallel worlds.

Magical stories are interesting and when it has good narrative keep the reader going. I love the fact that Jarla could come out of societal norms and make a good name for herself.

"The Magician's Secret" by Charles Townsend seems to be an interesting book about magic. I am not a fan of books they discuss magic because they scare me. I will pass this one along.

The book sounds pretty interesting. The beginning of the book is very captivating and the events unravel very fast starting with the murder. This fast-paced book with the unpredictable plot must be very interesting. I will definitely put it on my To Read List. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!
