Welton Isn't Your Average College

Lies and Prophecy by Marie Brennan takes place on the college campus of Welton University in chilly Minnesota. Welton isn't your everyday college, it's one of the top schools in magic. Kim and her friends take us through the journey of your not so average third year college student studying Divination, Psychic Sciences, and a number of other tough courses. Kim's story pulls you in further each page until you feel you are sitting in the dining hall with them as they discuss their classes. When things stake a major unexpected turn you are hard pressed to put the book down.

The magic is not just part of the book but part of Marie Brennan's writing, she does an extraordinary job weaving the characters into your heart. I cannot wait to hear if there will be another book in this series. This book is highly recommended as I give it 4 1/2 stars.
