Summary: great book!
Comment: This book is absoultly the best book ever! The plot is strong with no weak ends. The characters are unique and humorous. The romance is to die for! This is one of the most well written books that I've read. I recommend that you read the first book, Mairelon The Magician first. You don't have to but it would be the best to do so. I love to read fantasy novels so if you ever want to talk about novels please e-mail me at [email protected].

Summary: Magical, enchanting, and very humorous!
Comment: I loved this book! Mairelon the Magician was pretty good (and traditional of all of Patricia Wrede's books, extremely funny).Magician's Ward is absolutely,positively wonderful!The characters were really developed in the sequel. Miss Wrede's books are always inspiring because they have good characters, plots that are not cliche, but always fresh and new, good language, clean outline (which is becoming rare lately),halarious interactions between characters, romance, and all that good stuff! Mairelon the Magician was outstanding when there was dialogue, but could kind of get to be a "page filler" when there wasn't. Magician's Ward however was... I can't tell you anything more other than it was the best and one of my favorite books! A MUST READ!

Summary: A Superb Sequel and A Wonderful (and acceptable) Romance
Comment: I found 'The Magician's Ward' and excellent and satisfying sequel to 'Mairelon the Magician.' Kim is much more mature in this book, and her friendship with Mairelon is a bit closer than in the last. Of course, as anyone who read the first has probably guessed, both start to have feelings for one another in a different sort of way. Now, to clear up any misunderstandings: A ward is NOT the same as an adopted child. A ward's parents can be alive and the amount of time that they're someone's ward can be long or short or permanent until the child marries. But the child and gaurdian are by no means considered related as a father and child. It would be more like the relationship between an apprentice and mentor. I recommend looking the term up in the dictionary, which would give you a clear idea. Secondly, Mairelon is NOT that much older than Kim. He is below 30, as was clearly stated in this book, but older than Lord Franton, who's about 23. My guess is that Mairelon is 8 to 9 years older than Kim, who is 19, despite what the back cover says. She was seventeen in the first book, and almost two years have elapsed between the first and second books. And lastly, you do have to keep in mind that this was set in the English Regency. It was considered acceptable to marry someone twenty years older or more. And nowadays, the age difference between Mairelon and Kim is still considered acceptable.
