Magic University (Masters & Renegades) is not to be confused with the Magic University erotica series, nor is it to be compared with Harry Potter. The first thing that stands out about this novel is the timeline: the events happen in less than a day. This allows the author, Chantal Boudreau, to write in great detail without bogging down the reader. The second thing I thought about this book was, "Gamers are going to freakin' LOVE this!" With several characters, complete with their own back stories, anyone into RPG will appreciate the way this book is set up.Throughout the story, the characters experience their own personal journeys in a world that is not the usual whimsical settings presented by many mainstream fantasy novels. And, just like her young adult novelFervor, Masters & Renegades also blends the best elements of several genres. Chantal continues to be such a great storyteller; it's easy to imagine her sitting by a fireside and reading this tale to you from some ancient tome.
