A good starting point for young fantasy readers,
By A Customer
This review is from: The High King's Daughter (Circle of Magic) (Paperback)
The Circle of Magic: The High King's Daughter was a book which I read when I was younger. It introduced me to the world of magic, knights, elves, princess and wizards. I enjoy reading this book even though I bought it alone and thus lost some important part of the plot. I would recommend anyone who wish to read this series to read the first book and continue to through the rest of the series before reading the last book:The High King's Daughter. The Circle of Magic series follows the traditional path, we have good and bad wizards, knights,minsterals and a princess. However, it is well written and easy to read. The characters are memorable and for most part a good introduction to the world of fantasy. However, it might not deal well with fantasy readers of older age as its effect is lessen and it is frankly, not in the league of Harry Potter. In short, this series is good for young children who is hoping to try fantasy and I am sure they will find it a good read.

A Fitting Finale,
By A Customer
This review is from: The High King's Daughter (Circle of Magic) (Paperback)
This is the sixth and final book to the Circle of Magic set, and a wonderful journey it is! We meet our 3 heros again, Randal, the wizard-in-training, his cousin Walter, a knight, and his friend, a thief turned minstral, who is a girl around his own age, named Lys. They meet friends and foes they encountered in the previous books and a new cast as well, with a plot that stands on its own. They must defeat a powerful and evil wizard and bring the rightful queen to her throne. The major strength of the story is Randal, because he is flawed, filled with doubts and fears, but determined to do the right thing anyway. His growth of both power and conviction become more evident as time goes by yet we never lose the idea that he is simply human and can always make mistakes. This character, set against a story of action and adventure, makes it all a lot of fun besides!

This review is from: The High King's Daughter (Circle of Magic Series) (Library Binding)
My kids love it when I read it to them. I love it when I can add the accents and dramatize the story. Whole series emphasizes values: honesty, integrity, loyalty. High King's Daughter is the best written of the series (not to diminish the other four).
