A Wizardy Book that Fell Short of Magical

In the hallowed halls of Oxford’s Merlin College, the most talented—and highest born—sons of the Kingdom of Britain are taught the intricacies of magickal theory. But what dazzles can also destroy, as Gray Marshall is about to discover…
 
Gray’s deep talent for magick has won him a place at Merlin College. But when he accompanies four fellow students on a mysterious midnight errand that ends in disaster and death, he is sent away in disgrace—and without a trace of his power. He must spend the summer under the watchful eye of his domineering professor, Appius Callender, working in the gardens of Callender’s country estate and hoping to recover his abilities. And it is there, toiling away on a summer afternoon, that he meets the professor’s daughter.

  I was given this book to review. I tried my hardest to read this book. I found it very difficult to keep up with the characters. Also the language in here made me want to get out a dictionary to understand some of the language. I enjoy a book that I can easily follow along with the characters as well as understand what I am reading.

"I received this book from Blogging for Books for this review.
