Great plans, indeed, the Oracle said, sounding amused. Then he’d earn a seat on the King’s Council by the time he turned thirty and beat his father’s record. Of course he had great plans-his father was Ivander Roth, greatest fire mage in the eleven kingdoms and a First Mage of the King’s Council, the second youngest to ever be granted the honor.Ĭonnor planned to follow in his father’s footsteps: He’d get himself Paired with Elisa, just as his father had been Paired with his mother, and together he and Elisa would best his parents’ display at the Senior Trial. You have great plans.Ĭonnor knew he was supposed to keep his mind blank and open for the Pairing, but he couldn’t help the smug turn of his thoughts. And for one so young, you envision an ambitious future for yourself. You have much power, it said in Connor’s mind. It didn’t have a mouth, but it didn’t need one. Landyn is a water mage, and everyone knows mages with opposing elements can’t work magic together.Ĭonnor is left with a choice: work alone and fail or swallow his pride and work with Landyn to find a way to combine their magic in a display the Archmages will never forget-if they don’t get kicked out of school in the process. This is an act unprecedented in their school’s history. But his plan for fame and glory is disrupted when the Oracle sticks him with Landyn Glendower for Senior Trial. He’s powerful, popular, and he has a plan. Dreamspinner author Agatha Bird has a new MM fantasy out:Ĭonnor Roth is a fire mage who’s going places.
