AuthorHilari Bell

Reviewed by: Allie Z. '12

Dayven is turning 14 and it is time for him to take the wizard test. Dayven takes the test and to his horror, he passes. Dayven absolutely does not want to become a wizard. He promised his mother before she died that he would never have to do anything with magic. Yet, Dayven doesn’t have a choice. The great and powerful Lord Enar sends him on a mission to spy on the wizards. Dayven becomes a wizard’s apprentice and then, his master, Reddick, sends Dayven to spy on the Cenzar, the enemy. Dayven becomes entangled in a mess of lies, magic, wizardry, spying, mystery, betrayal, honor, fate, truth, and much, much more. What is Dayven to do! Dayven has always wanted to be a Guardian, and Lord Enar promises that when he gets back from spying that Dayven will become one. Dayven will just have to be careful and not use magic to alter anyone’s destiny. Does Dayven become a wizard? Why is Dayven spying on the wizards and the Cenzar? Will Dayven betray his promise to his mother? Read the book to find out!

If you enjoy magic, war, fighting, lies, and mystery, I think that you will enjoy this book. The Wizard Test is a little hard to follow and it gets confusing in areas. You just have to read the book slowly and take your time so you understand it.
