Ilustration During Books Legacy of Kings (The Magister Trilogy #3)

Legacy of Kings is the final book in C.S. Friedman’s Magister trilogy. Legacy picks up immediately following the events in “Wings of Wrath”. King Salvatore is building his army to make a final stand against the Souleaters all the while trying to come to grips with his lyr blood and how that will affect his faith. Queen Gwenifar is racing against time to train as a guardian and decipher the series of events after her sacrifice on the Throne of Tears in order to unite the lyr bloodline in her son’s army. Kamala is exploring her unique Magister abilities and still trying to fit into Magister society ruled solely by males. Colivar’s past is finally reveled and he alone knows the origin of the Magisters and what this will mean in the battle to come. My favorite part of this book and the entire series is the magic system. Unlike some series I have read where magic wielders draw from the elements, or study various arcane phases and formula, Friedman’s system ups the ante a bit. How would you use magic if you had to draw from your own life force and could not replenish it, or on the flipside, if you could draw power from the soul of someone you had never met and when you used it up you simply moved on to another person? Each group is faced with different choices and their decisions shape their lives and the lives of others in dramatic ways. There are many revelations in “Legacy” and all your questions are answered. There were many “ah ha” moments for me and several things I never saw coming. I love being surprised like that. I recommend re-reading Feast of Souls and Wings of Wrath before reading Legacy. You certainly do not have to nor will it detract from the amazing experience this book gives, but there are many things I did not catch in my initial reads of Feast and Wings and it made Legacy even more enjoyable. I have not read all of Ms. Friedman’s work but the Coldfire trilogy is my all time favorite read. I rank the Magister trilogy right up there with it because she writes such compelling characters. The characters are complex and never black and white, but myriad shades of gray. At first blush you clearly see the “good” and “evil” side but as you read further you see the reasons behind their actions and can sympathize with them. The mark of a great author is when you are so drawn into the story that you begin to rationalize the characters actions and think, “yes, that is exactly what I would do”, or “I see why they made that decision”. I was fortunate enough to get an ARC copy of Legacy from the publisher. I whole-heartedly give this book 5 stars and look forward to re reading the series and future books from Ms. Friedman.

Criticize Regarding Books Legacy of Kings (The Magister Trilogy #3)

What a well-crafted story! I loved pretty much everything about this trilogy.

Could have been so much more

Legacy of Kings by Celia FriedmanThis fantasy novel, the third in the Magister trilogy, brings the relationship between Magisters (sorcerers) centre stage. Struggling to trust each other, even in the interest of the greater good, and intensely territorial, sparks fly whenever two Magisters end up in the same place, as Colivar quickly discovers."'We are incapable even of talking face-to-face with our own kind without bestial instincts taking control of us. What kind of law do you envision for us?

I don't know why I read this trilogy over so many years. I should have read them all together at once because I LOVED THIS SERIES SO MUCH! The final book did NOT disappoint and I adored it. I couldn't put it down until it was finished. Low key obsessed with Coliver now and Kamala was amazing as always. This trilogy is definitely in my favorites now.

Intensely satisfying conclusion to the Magister trilogy. Superbly crafted, relentless, engrossing. Highly recommend this book and the series.

In C.S. Friedman's Legacy of Kings, the conclusion to her Magister Trilogy, the Souleaters have become such a major threat that former enemies are considering becoming allies to end it. Can Salvator reconcile his Penitent faith with the people and powers he might have to work with to save the world from the Souleaters? (Also, is it possible the Souleaters are part of God's plan and he shouldn't get in their way?) Can the Magisters set aside their selfishness and all-consuming urge to protect

Ahhhh, this series had so much potential...I really enjoyed the first in the series, mostly because of the anti-heroes and moral dilemmas. I thought it was an interesting look at power and what some people are doing for power.The second book was not great but not bad, just kinda somewhere in the middle. This last one, sadly, ended being a bit disappointing. The "surprise" was not much of a surprise and the build up to the reveal felt too drawn out and, honestly, it just got annoying. Then the
