Hello, today I will introduce a whole new section dedicated to Fantasy (all types), dealing with the legends more or less widespread and long, in order to clarify both the reading order is to rearrange the ideas.
Une of thing I find both positive and negative fantasy sagas is their length ranging from three to ten books in a trilogy of some fifteen volumes epoch-making cycles, and of course, especially with regard to the works being published, it can sometimes be difficult to remember the events of a specific volume before starting to read the next one.
For this I offer this section, where you just speak in general terms of the sagas I've read or am reading in order to tidy up my ideas that is yours and maybe you discover sagas unknown but deserve for me attention.
Today I want to talk about the first saga of Trudi Canavan The Black Magician Trilogy .
I chose this trilogy because at the end of February has been published the first volume of the second saga of the same author, and first to offer my review of "Light of the Magicians" I felt it necessary to show the previous volumes, so as to understand the development of history, at least so generic.
Today I will propose just the textures and covers with my personal evaluation of generic, because I'm going, now that the exam period is finally over, re-read the trilogy of the black magician and make timely reviews of the three books that will go for now.
