Sixteen-year-old Seph McCauley has spent the past three years getting kicked out of one exclusive private school after another. Unfortunately 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 now that the only person who could protect him has died, 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. At first, it seems like the answer to his prayers. Gregory Leicester, the headmaster, promises to train Seph in magic and initiate him into his mysterious order of wizards.  But Seph's enthusiasm dampens quickly 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.

In this companion novel to the exciting fantasy The Warrior Heir, everyone's got a secret to keep: Jason Haley, a fellow student who’s been warned to keep away from Seph; the enchanter Linda Downey, who knew his parents; the rogue wizard Leander Hastings, and the warriors Jack Swift and Ellen Stephenson. This wizard war is one that Seph may not have the strength to survive.

I liked how thwe first book connected to this one, but I didn't like the way that Jack changed. Now he's just a far off hero, not the kid that went through a lot of problems and stayed true no matter what hurt him.

I love this book, it was such a great book

Its really good fro those who like fantasy, magic, and book series!

This author wasn't the best. I mean, i could write this book, and if I did, It would most likely be better. She didn't put any feeling into the book. Parts that should have been really emotional and awe inspiring just weren't. The story was pretty good, i guess.
