5.0 out of 5 stars as close to perfection as I ever hope to find.., 18 Feb 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Deep Wizardry (Wizardry Series) (Paperback)
This is a YA book about adolescents, but at 23 I find that it's still my all-time favorite. It's moving without being pretentious, and the dilemma presented is morally complex. Duane doesn't pull punches or talk down to readers (save for a few comic relief missteps which don't detract from the impact of the book). _Deep Wizardry_ is fascinating and fun, easy to read with some simple yet beautifully lyric turns of phrase. I reread my well-worn copy of it at least once or twice a year, and still find it satisfying. Playful, emotional, beautiful, realistic and a must-have for any intelligent fantasy-lover.

3.0 out of 5 stars I never could finish it!, 10 Aug 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Deep Wizardry (Wizardry Series) (Paperback)
The sequel to So You Want to Be a Wizard. I loved that book so I though I would like this one. I liked every other wizard book she has written except this one. I always fell asleep reading it. The spells and magic stuff are cool but the plot just wasn't as good as High Wizardry, A Wizard Abroad, and the Book of Night With Moon. It got so boring after they had to tell Nita's parents that they were wizards. I didn't even know that Nita hadn't died (since I never finished it) until I read the next book in the series. I give it 3 stars because the plot kinda sucked but the Stuff was cool.
