Sonea gjorde store øjne da en kommentar i bogen afslørede, at antikkens troldmænd kunne forøge deres egen kraft ved at trække på deres lærlinges kraft. De udøvede sort magi. Sonea kunne ikke få sig selv til at tro det. Hun læste kommentaren flere gange, men der var ingen tvivl, selv om forfatteren brugte en anden betegnelse – højmagi ... Sonea får nogle bøger af Akkarin, som med ét gør op med alt hvad hun hidtil har lært, og hun konfronteres af nye spørgsmål: Er den sorte magi gennemført ond? Er Akkarin? Og er troldmandsakademiet i virkeligheden så sikkert som alle tror? Sonea står pludselig over for mange nye og svære valg – valg der kan afgøre hendes fremtid inden for troldmandslavet for altid ...

Jeg synes at bogen er god fordi at den er rigtig spændende og man kommer til at tænke rigtig meget over det der er sket. Det jeg bedst kan lide ved bogen er spændingen og mystikken. Det jeg godt kan lide ved hovedpersonen er at hun er snedig, sejlivet og stædig, men nogle gange også lidt dumdristig. Jeg kan også godt lide Akkarin fordi jaa at han er sej, men lidt grov. Jeg kan godt lide slutningen fordi at det er rigtig spændende og man har bare lyst til mere.
