“a very classic style book. i really enjoy reading it, the plot is feel of twist near the end, such as 2 sides of good that mistaken each other as enemy and fought with each other. but in the end they were working together to fight the main evil. this book also bring a interesting idea to me. back then, simple magic tricks were consider terrible, and evil. before i read this book, i never thought of magic being dangerous, maybe it’s because they dont know the nature of it, as the truth is just some illusion or mindtrick.but overall the book is really worth reading, i would recommand it to anyone.”
