Think again. The Magisterium awaits... Most people would do anything to get into the Magisterium and pass the Iron Trial.
Not Callum Hunt.
Call has been told his whole life that he should never trust a magician. And so he tries his best to do his worst - but fails at failing.
Now he must enter the Magisterium.
It's a place that's both sensational and sinister. And Call realizes it has dark ties to his past and a twisty path to his future.
The Iron Trial is just the beginning. Call's biggest test is still to come.

Cassandra Clare is one of my favourite YA authors. I've just discovered the wonder of Holly Black. So I had high hopes for this book. And it ticked all the boxes for me. Call is a great character, he has powerful abilities but has been raised to hate them and despite magicians by his bitter father. The conflict he feels when he gets into the Magisterial is a powerful driving force all the way through the book. I loved being part of Call's story as he makes friends, discovers his own abilities and starts to dig into his own past and the darker secrets of the Magisterium.
