After learning how his powerlessness can be used as a weapon in the world of magic and defeating Nicodemus's plan to overthrow the government, Timothy travels to a war-torn dimension to help the Wurm, fierce magicians and warriors descended from an ancient dragon race. But while covertly gathering information on the age-old feud between the bloodthirsty Wurm and the Parliament of Mages, Timothy discovers a very different story -- one of peaceful Wurms and a conspiracy led by the Parliament of Mages.But that's not the only problem on Timothy's hands. The mysterious girl he spotted in SkyHaven is the granddaughter of Nicodemus, and she's challenging Leander's right to be Grandmaster of the Order of Alhazred. And despite Nicodemus's death, mages are still disappearing...and this time someone is painting Timothy as the villain. (goodreads)
The second installment of the Outcast series managed to be just as good as the first! Often the newness of the scenery wears off and things feel redundunt with some series, but the description of the beautiful yet eerie parliment building as well as the dark and closed in magical prison under the sea. And of course the visit to the Wurm world was also new and interesting.
Timothy and Leander continue to grow and learn more about themselves and the mages Leander had held with such respect for so long. The addition of Cassandra will surely add more drama later, but she still remains a bit mysterious. There's a few more mysteries left for more books also, such as the evil master that seems to be giving directions to all our villains.
It's an easy read, but a good one. Wonderful Magical world.
