Sixteen-year-old Seph McCauley has spent the past three years getting kicked out of one exclusive private school after another. And it's not his attitude that's the problem: it's the trail of magical accidents - lately, disasters - that follow in his wake. Seph is a wizard, orphaned and untrained, and his powers are escalating out of control.After causing a tragic fire at an after-hours party, Seph is sent to the Havens, a secluded boys' school on the coast of Maine. Gregory Leicester, the headmaster, promises to train Seph in magic and initiate him into his mysterious order of wizards. But Seph's enthusiasm dampens when he learns that training comes at a steep cost, and that Leicester plans to use his students' powers to serve his own mysterious agenda.

Seph started out pretty unlikable. He's always popular, people always like his ideas, and he uses his powers to persuade people. This third one doesn't stop and he actually uses his magic to get girls.. He grew on me though and he's a better character than Jack. It says something that the girl he falls for, Maddie, isn't effected by his magic. She's an interesting character. The school has a creepy atmosphere and it's obvious something sinister is going on there. I didn't like the whole3.5 StarsContemporary Fantasy is how I would classify this, I think that is a category. It is interesting because in most fantasy books Ive read the environment is almost as much a character as the people in the story. Not so much the case in a contemporary fantasy. I will say that I prefer straight up fantasy but this series is growing on me.CWC writing has definitely grown since her first book. This story seemed to flow a little better than the The Warrior Heir. Seph is a wizard orphan, his
I definitely enjoyed this more than the The Warrior Heir! I think I'd been so focused on the fact that this series is more urban fantasy that I didn't take the time to appreciate the story for it's worth. The Wizard Heir feels distinctly more fantasy since a majority of this takes place in a secluded boarding school. Seph McCauley is sent to Hayden's after he causing a devastating accident; however, things are not all they seem at Hayden's. Seph is desperate for a magical teacher and a way to

Honestly, when I started this book, I didn't have high hopes. The first one intrigued me enough to read the second one, but I wasn't too fond of it. Then I read this one, and I was blown away. It's was an amazing book, and the storyline kept me on the edge of my seat. It was full of twists and turns, and I loved it. Also, the fantasy was explained much better in this book than in the first one. I highly recommend.
ACTUAL RATING: 3.5 STARSThis sequel was quite a great improvement from the first book (I've read this in one day and that rarely happens). Way more engaging in my opinion and less predictable. I found Seph, the main character, way more likeable than Jack or at least less whinny and more sensible and useful. And I'm kind of intrigued to see how the third book goes.
Reviewed by Carrie Spellman for TeensReadToo.comSixteen-year-old Seph (Joseph) McCauley is a double orphan. His parents died in a tragic accident so long ago that he doesn't remember them. (At least that's what the paperwork says; Seph's pretty sure it's fake.) Not too long ago he lost Genevieve, the woman who raised him and cared for him. Since then he's been shipped from town to town, from school to school. The only thing that stays the same is the reason he keeps having to leave. Weird things
This was a reread for meI liked this more than the first book in the seriesThere was more mystery and intrigue I liked the character development
