The Magickers Chronicles: Volume One (The Magickers #1-2 omnibus)
by
Emily Drake
Long ago, a war was fought between two opposing groups of magic practitioners-the Magickers, who believed in using magic for the general good, and the Dark Hand, who felt that magic belonged to them and should only be used for their own benefit.

Meeeeh. I misunderstood and thought it might be a YA book. (For a change.)

I really wanted to like this, but I couldn't even finish it. I started reading it expecting magic and instead read 300-something pages about a kid going to summer camp. Maybe it got better after that, but I could not stay interested enough to find out.

A fantastic read for anyone who is wanting a little more magic in their lives after harry potter.
Not quite the next Harry Potter series, but still a fun read.
