This series is fantastic. The first book pitted Wiz and her blustering mage-partner Mug against a necromancer in a fast-paced game of basketball. This second book starts a little slower, with some backstory about how Wiz was discovered by the mage organization. But before the end her and Mug are competing in another magical sports competition- beach volleyball against a set of sea-god champions. Sam Bosma also works as an artist on the show Steven Universe, and the art in this book shares a very similar aesthetic.
