Narration Conducive To Books Blaze of Glory (The Laws of Magic #1)

Aubrey Fitzwilliam is the son of a prominent ex-prime minister. He's also brilliant at magic, but he's stuck at military school. At least he has his best friend, George, there to back him up. George would follow Aubrey anywhere - and with Aubrey's talent for thinking up impulsive and daring schemes that will get them both in trouble, that's no easy thing to do.

At a weekend shooting party at Prince Albert's country estate, the boys find themselves in a hotbed of intrigue and politics. They discover a golem, a magical creature built to perform one task: to kill Prince Albert. Aubrey and George are hailed as heroes for foiling the attempt on the prince's life - but who sent the golem, and why? Aubrey is far too curious to let the authorities handle this one, and he and George start investigating.

Column Based On Books Blaze of Glory (The Laws of Magic #1)

This is an alternate universe historical series (something like the Temeraire series (Naomi Novik) with dragons, and the Battlesaurus series (Brian Falkner) with dinosaurs), with magic being a normal part of life. Some have it and some don't (rather like some of us ordinary this-universe people have musical talent and some don't, etc.) and our chief protagonist, of course, does. This is a teen novel, so he's a teen (late teens, I don't remember precisely which one), and he's a student (?at some

Why have I never heard of this book before! Honestly peoples, this is a bit like Harry Potter and The Rithmatist just for older readers with a touch of something sciencey and a dab of political turmoil. The style is different but schools where magic is a class, and magic is an accepted part of society. This book is set shortly before ww1 but in a world/alternate history where places have different names (but you can eventually work out what they are similar to) and the laws of magic were

Don't trust my review it's incredibly biased. I read this book when I was in late primary/early high school, and in the ten years or so following I forgot almost every identifying detail except the profound effect it had on me. It took two years of looking and posting about it until someone recognised my vague descriptions and brought me here. It's interesting to look back on, because this book contains pretty much every trope and aesthetic that I've grown to love reading, as well as writing in

Here's one of those books that I discover on the occasion that is a little bit of a gem and yet no one I know has read it. Well no one except perhaps my mum as I did lend her the first book to read I believe. So I have come back - not from the grave of course - to write this review so those rare few who read my reviews will know to read it if it at all intrigues them.This is book one in a YA series which is very well written (by an Australian I might as well mention). It is set in a world at

Caroline, the Bane of All Promising BooksDNF @ 67%Blaze of Glory is a rather entertaining novel once you get accustomed to the bouts of boring political intrigue. Notice I prefaced the political drama as boring - not that politics is intrinsically boring in and of itself, that's an important distinction to make. Overall, the characters are interesting, the world feels alive and new and the dialogue is simply delightful. So why the low rating and the DNF status?Caroline, the female lead, is a

Started off slow for me and it took me a few chapters to get into. It got better.

I deem this abandoned, since I usually don't just stop reading and take another book, if I was at least a bit interested.
