LitPick Review
It has been ten years since Reiffen, Ferris, and Avender raised the siege of Rimwich and killed two of the three Wizards. Now, Ferris and Reiffen are married and raising their daughter, Hubley. Their peace is haunted with the fear that the last Wizard, Reiffen's old teacher and enemy Fornoch, wants to kidnap Hubley. Reiffen's paranoia turns him against everyone he loves. Now, with the help of her mother and all her friends, Hubley must try to save her father from himself.
Opinion:
S.C. Butler's novel, The Magician's Daughter, is the epic conclusion to the Stoneways Trilogy.The writing is fluid and poetic. Butler's mammoth imagination helps launch the reader to places unheard of or seen before. In truth, the book starts off slow, but the tension quickly develops as Reiffen's fears push him closer to madness. Overall, it's an intriguing book that leaves the reader satisfied. I would definitely recommend this book and trilogy to others.
