Review: Great sequal  A good read

Like the last book the story stays true to its origins and the characters continue to grow and develop.  Again the inventiveness of learning magic from the point of view of a young man figuring it out as he goes is captivating.  I have to admit it was a struggle at times to keep tripping over syntax and grammar, but the author did warn that this was a per-release, pre-edit, copy.  If you are like me then you were anxiously waiting for next novel and snapped it up like a gold nugget from an Alaska stream-bed and didn't mind the freezing water.  I recommend this to any fantasy enthusiast.  I give it five stars and am looking forward to book III.
