![]() ![]() One of my favorite scenes is between Landyn and Connor fighting about being paired together. I laughed so many times and highlighted more of this book than is strictly necessary. For example, all of the snide comments and riffs the characters give each other fit their type of magic, and it’s never forced. I’ve never read Agatha Bird before but just from this book, I can tell she has skill. Both have strong personalities, just as strong as the fire and water magic they control. Connor and Landyn are distinct and have their own voices. The world is well developed and understandable, and the characters are unforgettable. This 64 page novella is NOWHERE NEAR long enough, and yet despite this, what is on the page is wonderful. That said: I could read an entire series with Connor and Landyn. ![]() ![]() Review:This review is for a young adult title from Harmony Ink Press, an imprint of Dreamspinner Press. ![]() Landyn is a water mage, and everyone knows mages with opposing elements can’t work magic together.Ĭonnor is left with a choice: work alone and fail or swallow his pride and work with Landyn to find a way to combine their magic in a display the Archmages will never forget-if they don’t get kicked out of school in the process.
