Y'all are sleeping on the Wilderlore series, I swear. We're 3 books in now and they just keep getting better and BETTER! Barclay and his cohort enter the desert where mysterious storms are sweeping through, but they've got a Symposium to deal with first. Between an age-old prank war, mastering his wind Lore, and rumors of a mystical library, Barclay Thorne has a lot going on. I loved seeing the new apprentices and beasts, plus the riddles and puzzles! This series feels like one giant D&D campaign and I adore it. As time goes on, the books do become slightly darker and just more tense in general, but it really builds a sense of danger that suits the series. And with the ending of this one... trust me, I'm waiting for the next with bated breath.
