In the third book, The Future King, Fort finds out something important at the end of book two, something that is happening to the UK school. They are the ones who have time magic and students can see the future, but because of it a lot of them went kind of crazy, except for Cyrus (you learn all about him in book one).

Things ramp up a lot with this one and Fort and the gang have to try and right some wrongs and do what they can to keep a certain magic book from someone they know because if they don't the whole world will be destroyed.

I really have enjoyed this whole series so far but by far I think the third book has been my favorite. It was so fast paced and full of lots of action and you didn't know who was good or bad and of course it left me kind of hanging so I can't wait for the next one!

I really enjoy all the characters in this book, they are all very flawed but they think they are doing what is right or at least trying too. Fort, Jia, Rachel, and Cyrus all have different abilities that help them to survive and in this newest book we get introduced to some of the UK kids which was interesting.

I think anyone would enjoy this series but I am sure that young readers will have a lot of fun following these characters on their adventures from the real world to another dimension and back.

This is the third installment in Riley's series, "The Revenge of Magic." We are back in the world of magic with Fort Fitzgerald, and this time there's another school of magic too! My students love this series, and I think they will love this one too. The aspects of foretelling, the fantasy elements, more schools of magic, and of course adventure will surely lure readers back into this series. Riley's writing is descriptive, engaging, and thought provoking. He uses rich language that is accessible to middle grade readers. Highly recommend this books! I will be purchasing it for our library collection.

The publisher generously provided me with a copy of the book upon request on NetGalley. The rating, ideas and opinions shared are my own.

A great story! I LOVE the cover so much! I enjoyed the storyline and the characters. You should give this one a read!

This newest installment flows well and shows an interesting new way to combine old Arthurian myths with the existing Revenge of the Magic storyline. The multiple intersecting timelines were intriguing; they made it a fun read, but a little difficult to follow at times. You really need to have read the two books that come prior to this one for it to make sense. It doesn't work well as a stand-alone, but as a continuation it's excellent!
