After breaking the oldest law in wizardry while trying to save the School of Wizardry from destruction, fifteen-year-old Randal is made a journeyman wizard but is not allowed to use his magic, no matter how great the need, until he gets permission from the wizard Balpesh living as a hermit in the far off eastern mountains.

Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
The adventures of an appren tice/journeyman wizard are related in the first three volumes of "Circle of Magic," a continuing series. Dazzled by the power of a wandering adept, Randal forsakes training for knight hood, seeks admission to the Schola Sorceriae, is betrayed by a master wiz ard, wins journeyman status, and fol lows the road that will lead to mastery. Randal and his companions may not be portrayed with the depth found in the classic fantasies, but they are involved in page-turning action. There are enough magical battles, false knights, and narrow escapes to satisfy readers interested in exciting stories.

Intriguing Light Fantasy,
This review is from: Tournament and Tower (Circle of Magic) (Library Binding)
This book sticks in your mind for years. It is for young chapter book readers, but is re-readable forever. The action is continuous, the character's are easy to connect to, and the plot is amazing. It has a solid plot in itself, but also has hints of multiple plot meanings, which end up connecting to the whole series. The inter-book plot connections are uniquely made. The character's, similarly to many children's books, never fundamentaly change. This book is outstanding in it's fun, easy readability for anyone who loves magic, wizardry, midieval fantasy, and a great plot!
