Finished off Stevermer's A College of Magics today. I really enjoyed the atmosphere for most of the book -- Greenlaw, the Orient Express, Galazon, the costume ball in Aravis were all lovely. But the last part of the book didn't hold together as well. It was harder to tell just what exactly was going on.
I was disappointed in the quality of the reprint. The paper is just barely better than newsprint, and it wouldn't surprise me if the physical book didn't last for very long. It's too bad, because I'd love to read this to my kids when they're a bit older.
