This is a beautifully written and constructed fantasy that takes a clever twist on the world of magic. Her take on magic reminds me of the world of magic portrayed in the Magic or Madness trilogy. Both show the evil and power hungry sides of magic. They both show magic destroys as much as it creates.

The alternating stories balance each other quite nicely: female voice alternating with male voice, optimism about magic alternating with pessimism about magic, etc. I can't wait for the next book in the trilogy.
