I just finished this book and I have to say, I'm excited to begin the sequels. I highly recommend this book. It has some fine writing. The main character is fascinating, and while it's clearly a set-up for what's to come, still interesting in its own right.
I particularly like the way the author handles the magic and learning it. Felt real.

actually that looks very interesting. Normally i HATE, with a capital H (scratch that make the whole word capital) books or movies in which the main story is a dream, story, time-warp, or some other medium in which its not actually happening. However this book intrigues me.

Yeah, I was slightly annoyed when I realized how the story was set up, but I must say it is one of the best first person narratives I've ever read. I don't know how I managed to missed the information that the next book doesn't come out until next YEAR, but I was very upset when I found out. I hate waiting for the next book.
