Book Review, Trudi Canavan - The Black Magian Triology, The High Lord

Hi
I have just finished reading The High Lord by Trudi Canavan so completing The Black Magician Trilogy. This was an excellent read if you enjoy something magical. The author manages to give an impression of the landscape the characters are travelling through without using excessive detail. The story follows the life of a slum girl Sonea as she discovers her magical abilities in The Magician's Guild, her subsequent training and friendships in The Novice and finally her part in repelling an invasion by black magicians in The High Lord.
It is a compelling read. The characters appear believable and natural.
This is the first Trudi Canavan I have read but I will certainly be looking for the next trilogy.
