The last line of the novel will leave readers gasping, desperate for the third book of the trilogy to find out what happens next. The plot barrels along at an intense pace, straight into graduation and a shocking cliffhanger of an ending. The Scholomance series may be darker, and at a fraction of the size, it covers less territory, but fans of Rowling’s books will find much to like here. The world is as creative, the characters as likable, the plot as compulsively readable. A series about a wizarding school can hardly escape mention of Harry Potter, but Novik’s Scholomance series holds up to the comparison. She’s her own worst enemy, sabotaging all her friendships, but to the reader, who sees her true nature and can relate to her flaws, she’s intensely likable. El is determined that her chosen group will survive, but it is a prospect that is looking harder by the day as the savagery of the school ramps up. El is a delightful combination of irascibility and self-sacrifice, insolence and bravery, someone who says all the wrong things and irritates everyone around her but is ultimately willing to die to save them all.
