Wit, adventure, and snark.

Revisado: 04-09-25

There is no shortage of magical fantasy in circulation these days, though Gavin Brown's new novel stands out as a fresh, imaginative, and hilarious take on the now classic "wizard coming of age" story. The author takes our modern world as it exists—as many of us relate to—then overlays a magical realism onto it and fills it with colorful characters, intrigue, and a compelling struggle for our hero.
A particular and personal appreciation that I have for Gavin's world is that Magic does not belong solely to the elite or as a sort of congenital inheritance of being born into it, such as it does in a certain very popular book series about young students of magic going away to a school.
Wit, adventure, and a full complement of snark; it had all the elements of a page-turner for me, though, considering I listened to it, I'm not sure what the idiom would be. Though it needs to be said: I do hope the reader will narrate the subsequent novels in The Dark Sorcerer's Intern series; it was exceptionally well-done, Daniel was highly expressive without being tiresome and every one of the character voices felt right.
Very much looking forward to the next books.
