The Black Magician Trilogy by Trudi Canavan

A nice fantasy for those who like an easy read, a close-to-life pace and not too much gorge. It’s the story of a girl that, in a surge of anger, suddenly realizes she has special powers. It has been ages since the Magician Order took anyone of her likes under their wings, and the unlikeliness of the situation triggers many events, most undesirable for the Order, but somewhat necessary for the greater good.

It was a little too easy-go for me, specially after reading The Night Angel Trilogy, which is a very different kind of literature (not for the faint of heart). Entertaining all the same, the debut trilogy for Trudi Canavan.
