THREE STUDENT MAGES, BOUND BY FATE . . . FATED FOR DANGER

Arram Draper is on the path to becoming one of the realm's most powerful mages. The youngest student in his class at the Imperial University of Carthak, he has a Gift with unlimited potential for greatness - and for attracting trouble. At his side are his two best friends: Varice, a clever girl with an often-overlooked talent, and Ozorne, the 'leftover prince' with secret ambitions.

Together, these three friends forge a bond that will one day shape kingdoms. But as Ozorne gets closer to the throne and Varice gets closer to Arram's heart, Arram realizes that soon he will have to decide where his loyalties truly lie.

A great prequel to the Wild Magic series. Really expands on some of the characters from Numair's past, fleshing them out and making them much more complex than in their original portrayals. Young Numair is perfectly in character and you can really see him growing into the character we know from the Wild Magic series.

I have heard amazing things about Tamora Pierce but this was my first book read of hers. I am very impressed! It was fantastic & I was sad when it ended. It's a very well thought out teen fantasy with likeable characters & a great plot. I will definitely handsell this & can't wait for the next in the series!
