If I was an editor I would keep all the parts up to the point he arrives at his school that much of it was interesting the rest I would cut. A story has a beginning, a middle where there's a climax, and an end. I never got to the end and,so far there was no climax. I was almost half way through the book and it seemed like just a bunch of moss heads drinking at one tavern or another. There was no tension and by the time I had gotten through 69% of the book I find myself asking why am I reading this? I don't care for the characters they don't seem too be growing. The magic is glossed over.I felt like the writer was thinking " I don't know what to do with these characters so lets just throw them in another bar scene.  There is also some mysterious bad guy out there that hasn't been introduced yet and at this point I don't care.I would encourage the author to pick apart some stories and pay attention to how they are put together. She needs to figure out what makes a good story and what doesn't make a good story. Then try again.
