In this, the last of the Black Magician Trilogy, Sonea is forced to work with her guardian Akkarin and turn to Black Magic in order to protect the Guild of Magicians. Well constructed fantasy novel in which the different story threads are finally woven together to reach a startling climax. I felt that the ending although excellent was a bit long drawn out and some of the magical concepts were mentioned then ignored i.e. storing power in the stones. One peripheral character appears to be very important but then does nothing so not sure why they were brought in to the plot (unless they are going to feature in a spin off series?). However this did not spoil my enjoyment of the book. This book really keeps you guessing and I would recommend it highly.
