jeminijem's review against another edition
5.0
I read this way back when I was in high school, and it was one of the first few adult ADULT novels I read on my own. It's a bit slow, but I fell in love with the world and the characters. The magic system is deep and complex, though one might find the message a bit preachy, and none to subtle. I might even attribute my love for this book to the Harry Potter love crazy I had at the time (more of the same witches and wizards 'Arry)
A great read if you love fantasy/magic novels about magic and travel.

Slow read, used more words than needed. Really liked the characters. Didn't like the ending at all. Wouldn't recommend to my friends.
