Tris's Book Circle of Magic

Reviewed by:

The earthquake a few weeks ago has left Winding circle vulnerable for pirate attack. So every mage—including the four young mages Tris, Daja, Sandry and Briar-is working with their magic to help the community’s defenses. When Tris’s cousin Aymery arrives he tells her that she should go home to the family that exiled her. But Tris refuses to leave her friends to fight the pirates on their own. When the war begins two things become very clear: the pirates have a new weapon and they have an accomplice inside Winding Circle. But the attackers have failed to reckon with the anger of a young mage who has been betrayed one too many times, and her very loyal, very stubborn friends.

Reviewer: Sarah D. '07

This is the second ook in a series. In Tris’s Book the familiar character are Tris, Sandry, Daja and Brier, young children who are mages. A mage is a talented person who posses magic. In this story, the four children help fight off pirates who are coming to attack Winding Circle, where they live.

I thought the book was exciting and a pleasure to read.
