Our difference from normal humans was why we had to hide in this old mansion so that we wouldn’t get hurt or taken by the bad people.

Except one infamous case, of course, and after that no one ever tried to become that powerful again.I did not like this book, Rachel tried to make things darker, and when she tries to do that, sometimes it turns out boring. Said brother opens a portal to the netherworld and unleashes all kinds of hellish creatures on the real world. I'm not saying she's a bad author, but she did not do good on this book, I would've liked Kara better as the dark mage. In the name of duty, Darien Lauchlin will see oaths forsaken, crowns toppled, friends sacrificed and the land he loves desecrated. Despite being written prior to Darkstorm, I found Spencer's writing a great deal more rich and mature in this book.

On the night he ascends from acolyte to full mage, his hometown is destroyed and everyone he knows is killed when his jealous, power-hungry brother opens up a portal to hell.

A big part of this likely has to do with how the first book emotionally destroyed me, and I’m so attached to these two now because of that, but it’s made for an excellent storyline nonetheless!

Sometimes the action-effect-consequence scenarios weren't as clearly described as I would have liked, and I thought there were a few too many neat coincidences that allowed the main characters to survive and fight another day. One city has an Egyptian or Persian ambiance about it, this creates a very exotic and mysterious setting. When Billy can’t find the informant, he wonders if Kate is secretly harboring her, since the two grew close during Kate's weeks undercover. You have a character sheet akin to those used in role-playing games that tracks your possessions, your special abilities, your coins, and your victory points. power crystals are still missing3 mages have been chosen to find them2 worlds colliding, one evil, one magical1 mage will betray them allIn the heart of the magic, darkness is growing.The Dark Mage's Tome is a mount-summon item that places the player on a Book Mount similar to the one ridden by the Dark Mage during the Old One's Army event. Again, similar arc to WoT book 12, The Gathering Storm where Rand became Darth Rand and used his powers for 'good' uses but with dark means, although Spencer had her own spins and twists.
