Im looking for a new book, worth getting?
It's a long read, and a little tough to get into early on, but it was phenomenal by it's conclusion.
It's a period piece, offering a different view of historical events thoughout England, that centers around the friendly rivalry and relationships of two Magicians; yet magic itself is almost an after-thought to the telling of the story of the characters.
It's probably in my top 5 reads, and seeded high amongst those. It's fantasy, but it doesn't flaunt it in your face, instead offering a realism that really draws you in.
