The Magisterium The protagonist of the series is twelve-year-old Callum Hunt, or Call, who was raised by his father and former mage - Alastair Hunt. Alastair rejected the world of magic after the death of his wife Sarah at the Cold Massacre during the Third Mage War. 'The Enemy of Death', Constantine Madden, was responsible for her death. In the prologue The Enemy of Death places his soul into the infant Callum Hunts body. With her dying breath she warns her husband with her knife by carving a message on the walls and cripples her son by shattering the bones in his leg in hopes of killing him. In the first book, 'The Iron Trial', Call takes part in a series of tests to see whether he has sufficient magic to attend training at the Magisterium in which he tries to fail due to pressure from his father and is selected by master Rufus due to this. At the Magisterium apprentices are trained to be mages using the four elements of fire, air, water, and earth. Master Rufus decides to take him on as an apprentice. He also selects Tamara Rajavi and Aaron Stewart - the top-ranked students. Overall, I give this book 8/10 because it fills a gap that the Harry Potter book series leaves out. It isn’t the best book I’ve read, but it is certainly one of the best. |
