Magyk by Angie Sage

 
   
                       Summary
     A few weeks ago I finished a book called Magyk by Angie Sage.It is the first book in the entire Septimus Heap series.Magyk is about...well Magyk, Wizardry with a different name.The book is a Fantasy/Conspiracy genre story about a castle that is corrupted by the Supreme Custodian(Not the cleaning custodian)and the Custodian army(I know It sounds ridiculous an armed force carrying brooms and mops but it is not that custodian).The castle has no king but it does have a queen.The queen in Magyk is shot dead but her newborn is saved by the young Extra-Ordinary Wizard Marcia Overstrand.Ten years later the Custodians Hatch a new Evil plot to kill the Queenling before she gains her right to the throne.What will happen next?Read to find out!

                      Review
      Magyk is very well written and I feel that the plot was laid out perfectly,In the sense that it feels like any time there is a slight lack of information the next chapter fills you in on it...But Slowly.The book also has a cool fonts for Magykal things like spells and potions,this makes them stand out amongst the rest of the text and makes the spell/item feel real by distinguishing it from other things/actions.The book also has a balance of action and explanation so the reader is always filled in and is never bored.I found this book so enjoyable it always left me saying "one more page..."

5/5
