Spell or High Water

Fiction by Scott Meyer.

This is the sequel to Off to be the Wizard, which I read recently and really enjoyed. The sequel was less fun, maybe because the novelty of the first story has worn off for me, or because I spent much of the book in the throes of "Oh-No-I-Can't-Look Syndrome,"** worrying about the characters making bad decisions that would come back to haunt them.

It was a pretty fun book, but I'm unsure about pursuing the series further.


**Oh-No-I-Can't-Look Syndrome

(see Harvesting the Heart by Jodi Picoult)

That's when you know a main character is making a major error in judgement that's going to have huge and terrible consequences.
