Publisher's Summary

Journey to the magical world of Erthia in these two exciting prequels to The Black Witch by critically acclaimed author Laurie Forest.

Wandfasted

Twenty years before Elloren Gardner enrolled at the illustrious Verpax University, Erthia was rent asunder during the devastating Realm War. When Tessla Harrow is driven from her home by the fighting, she discovers a depth of power she never knew she had...and an irresistible draw toward Vale Gardner, the son of the most powerful mage her people have ever known - the Black Witch.

Light Mage

Before Elloren Gardner came to possess the White Wand of myth, the wand was drawn to another bearer: Sagellyn Gaffney. Sage’s affinity for light magery, a rare skill among Gardnerians, makes her the perfect protector for the one tool that can combat the shadows spreading across Erthia. But in order to keep the wand safe from the dark forces hunting for it, Sage must abandon everything she once knew and forge a new path for herself...a dangerous course that could lead to either triumph or utter ruin.

Recommend LIGHT MAGE Only

I really enjoy THE BLACK WITCH series, so I was looking forward to some bonus stories set in the same universe. The results were a little unbalanced, since I must admit that I did not get through WANDFASTED.

WANDFASTED just c0uldn't seem to hold my focus. Though I did empathize with Tessla in the beginning, by the time I got to the midpoint, I found her to be a little melodramatic. I stopped halfway through and moved onto the next story.

LIGHT MAGE was much different. I've always liked Sage, so I found her to be far more engaging and proactive as a protagonist. She has a good heart and had good conversation/relationships with other characters. I enjoyed seeing her journey as her world was turned on its head. The story had a good pacing and great dialogues. It was good to see familiar faces, and this truly felt like a full story rather than just a novella.

If readers were trying to decide, I would recommend LIGHT MAGE on its own.
