Description

Discover a land of enchantment, legend, and adventure in this first book of the Immortals series, featuring an updated cover for longtime fans and fresh converts alike, and including an all-new afterword from Tamora Pierce.

Thirteen-year-old Daine has always had a special connection with animals, but only when she’s forced to leave home does she realize it’s more than a knack—it’s magic. With this wild magic, not only can Daine speak to animals, but she can also make them obey her. Daine takes a job handling horses for the Queen’s Riders, where she meets the master mage Numair and becomes his student.

Under Numair’s guidance, Daine explores the scope of her magic. But she encounters other beings, too, who are not so gentle. These terrifying creatures, called Immortals, have been imprisoned in the Divine Realms for the past four hundred years—but now someone has broken the barrier. And it’s up to Daine and her friends to defend their world from an Immortal attack.

One of the best book series I’ve ever read. I reread them all ever couple of years since I was 10. I’m 33 years old now. I love Tamora Pierce’s writing!
Just as Good a read as an Adult!

I first read this book when I was in Middle school. Now re-reading it in my Thirties after finishing Tempests and Slaughter. I’ve always wanted to know more about Numair and now reading Wild Magic again, it’s so detailed and well thought out. The characters personalities jump off the page! Tamora Pierce has been a favorite author of mine for a long time. She just gets better with age. Wild Magic is meant for young adult and is a quick read yet filled with so much color and deftness of writing. I enjoyed the journey just as much this time.
Completely Magical!

I love this book!! I was a little frustrated with the many mistakes which must have occurred when it was digitallized. I highly recommend a review by whoever fixes such things!! However, I first read this when I was much younger but it was such a joy to re-read!! I could see the collection being made into movies similar to Harry Potter but they lean more toward nature with mages instead wizards. Although I would recommend starting with the Lioness collection first because it lays a beautiful foundation as those books really lead up to this collection. All in all they provide hours of very enjoyable reading with characters that are very endearing!! Like I said I love it!!!!💖
I can't even
