Blind_Mapmaker reviewed High Wizardry by Diane Duane (Young Wizards, #3)
Review of 'High wizardry' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
4.5 Really good continuation of the series that should make all little sisters happy with a role model that doesn't fit easy pigeon-holes. As always moral questions are not brushed away or overs-simplified, but there of course it's still a YA novel. This one was not quite as evocative and enchanting for me as the first two, but the final frontier has its own charms. There are a couple of minor quibbles I have with it (like a glossed-over panicked killing) and a bit more deus-ex-machina than usual, but the enchanted computer as an ersatz spellbook is ingenious (especially for the late eighties) and the imaginative story-telling takes off from there.
