"We should expect this young woman to be more powerful than our average novice, possibly even more powerful than the average magician."
This year, like every other, the magicians of Imardin gather to purge the city of undesirables. Cloaked in the protection of their sorcery, they move with no fear of the vagrants and miscreants who despise them and their work—until one enraged girl, barely more than a child, hurls a stone at the hated invaders . . . and effortlessly penetrates their magical shield.
What the Magicians' Guild has long dreaded has finally come to pass. There is someone outside their ranks who possesses a raw power beyond imagining, an untrained mage who must be found and schooled before she destroys herself and her city with a force she cannot yet control.

Der erste Band der „Black Magician Trilogy“, „The Magician’s Guild”, basiert auf einem Traum der Autorin Trudi Canavan. Nachdem sie mitten in der Nacht einen Bericht über die Olympiade in Barcelona sah, der behauptete, die Regierung habe Obdachlose umsiedeln lassen, träumte sie, sie sei Teil einer G...
I enjoyed this book. Very much epic fantasy, with the feared magicians on one side and the impoverished slum-dwellers on the other. Our protagonist is a girl from the slums who happens to have untapped magical powers. One day, she accidentally lets her powers be shown, and the magicians want to chas...
This is an extremely quick, very well written, nicely paced, character driven, little gem of a novel that approaches Magic and Class in a captivating way. My husband and I read this every night before bed and we both were sucked in immediately and spit out happily at the end (which was sans cliffhan...
Meine Meinung Wenn ich mir so den Klappentext durchlese, klingt Sonea viel rebellischer, als sie in Wirklichkeit ist. Denn eigentlich gerät sie nur in einen Strudel aus Zufällen und in eine Welt, aus der sie Jahre zuvor dank ihrer Tante und ihrem Onkel entkommen ist. Cery sorgt sich so gut er kann u...
