While taking place in an hybrid academy setting, there is very little time spent in a classroom. Aside from an aunt in the guard that she rarely sees, everyone else in Eira’s life had me questioning their true intentions and wondering if and when they’d stab her in the back. Cullen and Marcus both took a while to grow on me, but thank goodness for Alyss. Eira is a powerful sorcerer and devoted friend whose light is dimmed by past horrors and the overwhelming protection of her family. As always, I was immediately drawn to the characters. I did not account for how thoroughly I would be consumed by returning to this world. The series may be read in any order you choose.Īlready a longtime fan of Elise Kova’s work, I knew I would enjoy A Trial of Sorcerers before I began reading it. As with Kova’s other books, you do not need to read any of the previous series to begin A Trial of Sorcerers. I can not wait to read more and know what is going to happen next.A Trial of Sorcerers is a brilliant start to a new series by Elise Kova set in the same world as the Air Awakens series. I am a huge fan of trails in fantasy novels, and this one did not disappoint. The reward for winning is having the chance to represent her empire in the Tournament of Five Kingdoms. The tower is facilitating a competition, in a series of progressively extreme trials. Which drives us to the great competition. I truly appreciated her determination to prove herself at any expense. It is all strange, however it worked really well at catching my attention and interest in her character. However, we do realize that something awful occurred with her sorcery a couple of years earlier and she is currently ostracized on account of what she did. She hears voices, at first some portion of her other powers are somewhat vague. She has a water affinity but she also has some different powers.

In A Trial of Sorcerers, we meet our primary character Eira who is a magician. I truly liked Trial of Sorcerers and I can hardly wait to proceed with the series.

In that case I think this series will be definitely suited to your tastes. If you are a fan of fantasy that highlights rich wizardry depictions and you love a good completion or tournament. Anyhow, it did not detract from my reading satisfaction. I do feel like I would have had a better understanding of the initial picture of the world if I had perused the past series before jumping into A Trial of Sorcerers. While I didn’t experience any difficulty following the story.
