ARC Review: Magicom

This is an ARC review. Thank you to the author, Adam Joseph for a copy of the book.

Magicom by Adam Joseph is a high fantasy, action-packed book that will keep you turning pages!

Magicom, the namesake of the book, are the villains in this story and August and his sister, Pink, are on a mission to dismantle the tyrant.

There are themes of corporate greed and tyranny along with individuality and finding oneself (this is a young adult genre novel). I appreciated the notes of political oppression and power struggles as it hits a bit close to home given our current political landscape.

I found Pink to be an enjoyable heroine as she was clever, witty and relatable. August was notable as well and fun to read. I appreciated the sibling team up to challenge the status quo and seek fairness.

There is plenty of action, and a ton of world building. I appreciate strong world building but if that isn't your thing, this is a high fantasy book and you should expect it. I won't say much more about the plot because I don't want to give more away but, the book is set up for a sequel so hopefully more to come from the author.

This was a fun read but with serious themes to contemplate afterwards. The political oppression and mismanagement of power... oof...

I gave this 🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮 and would recommend it to fantasy readers or people that want to be fantasy readers!
