A struggling student of magic, he rises to high station by saving Princess Carline, Duke Borric’s daughter, from mountain trolls and becomes a squire of the Duke’s court. In the twelfth year of the reign of Rodric the Fourth, an orphaned kitchen boy named Pug is made an apprentice magician to the magician Kulgan in Crydee. Lets discuss a brief synopsis of Magician: Although the magician does contain some typical fantasy troupes such as elves and dwarves, they never take away from the story but add a certain layer of depth, mystery, and vast world-building for the world we are set to inhabit.
Some published works of that time include: The Sword of Shannara by Terry Brooks and The Belgariad by Davis Eddings.
For the purpose of this review, I will be referring to it as Magician because it is one complete story.įantasy novels published around the 1980’s were viewed by publishers as needing to be a derivative of Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings in some shape or form. In the US, the books are titled: Magician Apprentice and Magician Master, but in the UK and Australia, the books are combined into one titled: Magician. Before I start, there may be some confusion as to the title depending on where you live. The answer is a resounding yes and I hope I can show you the magic and wonder that Raymond E.
I am sure many readers have heard of this story in one way or other and were wondering if the tale would translate well decades after first being published. It is hailed by many to be a classic and a masterpiece of fantastical literature and I believe this holds true even today. Two years later Magician was written and later published in 1982. After receiving his college degree in 1977, Feist started to have ideas for a story revolving around a boy who would one day become a magician. Feist was born in 1945 in Los Angeles California.
