librarianryan 's review for:
The Castoffs, V.1: Mage Against the Machine
by Wyeth Yates, Brian Smith, MK Reed, Molly Knox Ostertag
2.5 Stars
This is a look at a future where the machines have become so powerful, that they try to take over the world. But magic and mage still exist. They are the saviors. They had to save the people from the machine. But now, years later things are going wonky. New illnesses that can not be treated and someone wanting to raise the machines. So much of book 1 was the mages squabbling in girl fights that it was annoying. I think the “learn team work” vibe was hit way to hard. But I find the concept interesting enough to read the next volume.
