5/11/2023 0 Comments Raymond feist magicianTomas follows a dark path in an attempt to become a warrior of legend, while Pug is, of course, the eponymous magician. Magician is ultimately a tale of two boys, Pug and Tomas, as the war in their kingdom forces them to leave their humble beginnings and embark on adventures that will change them both forever. So, without further ado, here are my thoughts on Magician, book one of the Riftwar Saga. It’s now been more than eight years since I first read Magician, and I’m really keen to revisit a series of which I have so many fond memories, and which captivated my imagination at a time when elves and dwarves and magic were still relatively new to me. Since then I seem to have more or less left Feist behind me. For several months I proceeded to chain-read most of the then-published novels in his Riftwar cycle – beginning, of course, with Magician – before moving on to discover other authors. This is when a friend introduced me to the works of Raymond E. I first discovered ‘grown up’ fantasy fiction at the age of twelve, when I first read Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings. However, it wasn’t until I was seventeen that I realised – shock horror! – that there were authors other than Tolkien writing for this genre.
