Review of The Elf Archive - Book Two of the Magi Charter
[Following is a volunteer review of "The Elf Archive - Book Two of the Magi Charter" by Jordan David.]
The Elf Archive is the second book in the series The Magi Charter by Jordan David. It continues the happenings of the first book of the series effortlessly. The main character is plucked from the life he used to know due to unfortunate events and walks right into adventure.
Mikhail finds himself homeless and without family one night when his house burns down. A mysterious teenager offers him a job and a place to live, and Mikhail follows without question. Little does he know that instead of a possible trap he is headed to a place he had considered a children's fairytale his whole life.
The North Pole and the life of elves continue to be revealed in this second book of the series. We learn about the Reindeer Games, the inner workings of departments and policies, and more. The book offers adventure and wonder but it also explains how the legend of Santa has come to be and persists. It was all fascinating to read how the citizens of the North Pole work and interact with one another.
I found the series to be delightful so far. The writing is good, the pacing doesn't rush and provides information about characters and their surroundings well and without being too much. The characters are interesting and everything flows well together. It was an easy book to settle down with at the end of the day and enjoy some quick time. There was nothing about the book or story that I disliked, although sentence structures were a bit clumsy sometimes.
I rate the book 4 out of 4 stars because of the reasons mentioned above and because I want to read the third book in the series.
I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a fun and easy read that is appropriate for the upcoming Christmas season. The book is about the North Pole and Santas and elves, after all. If that is not your thing and you are looking for something more high fantasy, I suggest looking elsewhere. I think any age group could enjoy this book. There is no profanity or vulgar content.
I am looking forward to the third book and the resolution of the mild cliffhanger set up at the end of this second book. It's a cozy series to read this Christmas season and it could become a staple.
