Description
Young Pip must embrace his power to become a battle mage so he can defend the Magic Realm against the fierce Northmen invading from the sea and from the dark forces attacking his kingdom.
While recovering from Mordred's reign of terror and the departure of King Arthur, Pip foresees a new enemy breaching the shores of Britain: a fleet of Northmen led by the ruthless Halfdan Ragnarsson. Pip and Merlin fear Ragnarsson will fill Mordred's void and bring demonic darkness and chaos to their realm. It falls to Pip, together with old friends and new magicked allies, to stop Ragnarsson, protect the magical barrier that separates the Magic Realm from the Realm of Faerie, and unite the mages of light to protect all who were scattered by the breaking of the worlds.

Pip's fate
Halfdan Ragnarsson leads the Northmen and his goal is to take Mordred's position and lead the realm. Pip and his friends want to prevent this from happening, so they do everything in their power to stop him.
I really liked Pip and his friends. They are all brave and their quirks make them likeable. I particularly liked Merlin and Caraline.
It took about half the book for the story to grab me. The battles are excitingly written and the newly introduced creatures are interesting. I found the ending very well done and surprising in some aspects.
The writing style is not bad, but not particularly captivating either.
I like the cover a lot and it also fits the story.
I can recommend the book and the series to those who are interested in the Arthurian legend and who want to read a book with great characters and interesting battles.
