The Call of Magic by A.R. Ceagan provides a seductive glimpse into a magical realm balanced by genuine consequences and ramifications. The intricately described realm is full of mystery, intrigue and peppered with danger. Ceagan introduces readers to Emma Lie, a driven, ambitious young lady lone-wolf with a rebellious nature and impressive resolve. Her love interest tempers her intensity and harsh edges. The dynamic, volatile nature of Emma’s relationships is well-played and soon has readers’ hearts enveloped in the pages, silently (or not so silently) pining for one character or another. Sometimes the people that seem to have life figured out are the hot messes of the world because their sensibilities strangled their hearts into silence. I loved everything about Ms. Emma Lie.
Ceagan is an architect with words, bringing large-scale landscapes, structures, and scenes to life, erupting around the well-defined characters created. In these vibrant passages, readers are given a foundation and origin story that sets the stage for Emma’s journey of self-discovery. Emma is introduced to a world she did not know existed and threatens her plans for world domination that she had carefully laid out at a young age. Her motivation for severe focus is proving herself worthy. As Emma plunges down the rabbit hole, she carries the baggage of both her past and the future she created, unwilling to alter her plans no matter how attractive the new world and opportunities may be. A.R. Ceagan does a fantastic job in presenting obstacles, challenges and enticing you to see Emma navigate through in The Call of Magic. I look forward to more from this author.
