I mostly was speaking from a magic systems perspective when I made this comment, so I didn't intend to step on anyone's toes.

I'm fascinated by Alan Moore's work concerned with magic, and I just finished reading the final book in Naomi Novik's Scholomance trilogy, _The Golden Enclaves_, which my husband and my housemate and I have been obsessed with for the past couple of years. I highly recommend the trilogy. The audiobooks have a *fantastic* narrator. Bard has the first two audiobooks, but I purchased the third in the trilogy, which just came out.
