The Golden Enclaves

fullDescription

#1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER • Saving the world is a test no school of magic can prepare you for in the triumphant conclusion to the New York Times bestselling trilogy that began with A Deadly Education and The Last Graduate.
FINALIST FOR THE HUGO AWARD • ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: Paste, Publishers Weekly
The one thing you never talk about while you’re in the Scholomance is what you’ll do when you get out. Not even the richest enclaver would tempt fate that way. But it’s all we dream about: the hideously slim chance we’ll survive to make it out the gates and improbably find ourselves with a life ahead of us, a life outside the Scholomance halls.
And now the impossible dream has come true. I’m out, we’re all out—and I didn’t even have to turn into a monstrous dark witch to make it happen. So much for my great-grandmother’s prophecy of doom and destruction. I didn’t kill enclavers, I saved them. Me and Orion and our allies. Our graduation plan worked to perfection: We saved everyone and made the world safe for all wizards and brought peace and harmony to all the enclaves everywhere.
Ha, only joking! Actually, it’s gone all wrong. Someone else has picked up the project of destroying enclaves in my stead, and probably everyone we saved is about to get killed in the brewing enclave war. And the first thing I’ve got to do now, having miraculously gotten out of the Scholomance, is turn straight around and find a way back in.

     Starred review from July 25, 2022
     Novik dazzles in her brilliant and compulsively readable final Scholomance fantasy, which picks up immediately after the events of The Last Graduate. Galadriel “El” Higgins has successfully trapped 92% of all wizard-hunting monsters, or mals, in the magical boarding school Scholomance, now her alma mater, and led her fellow students to safety—all except for her enemy turned true love, Orion Lake. El’s desperate attempts to save Orion from a fate worse than death in the belly of the same “maw-mouth” monster that ate her father can’t succeed unless she gets power from the enclaves, groups of privileged wizards living in protective pocket universes. However, several enclaves have mysteriously vanished into the void, the powerful London enclave is under attack, and the New York and Shanghai enclaves are on the brink of war. To save Orion, El and her classmates must first save the world they have struggled so hard to rejoin and a future threatened by dangers built into the foundations of the enclaves themselves. This exquisitely well-crafted work engages deeply with genre classics like the Lord of the Rings and The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas while offering up its own detailed and original world full of clever parallels and a fascinating magical catch-22. Novik beautifully closes out El’s and Orion’s character arcs, paying off on groundwork laid in previous installments, and her focus on hope, resilience, and collective action makes this finale as moving as it is satisfying. This is a knockout.

   • content: Narrator Anisha Dadia chronicles teen witch El's final adventure. Formerly, El and the other students escaped the deadly Scholomance Academy, but her love interest, Orion Lake, fell in the battle. Now the school's ageless carnivores are attacking wizard enclaves worldwide. Dadia is believable as a teenage heroine, full of impassioned snark at the stupidity of the magical world leaders. She gives El's friends, Liesl, Aadhya, and Liu, distinct voices with accents. But as El travels the globe, battling soul-sucking mawmouths, Dadia struggles to maintain the same story cohesion that El's years at the Scholomance had. At times, El's extended monologues on wizard technique and history verge on recitation. However, Dadia does give El a definitive identity as a half-Welsh, half-Indian witch with an outsider's perspective. C.A. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine

     February 1, 2023
     

     Having escaped the Scholomance, El Higgins returns to Wales to mourn the loss of her love interest, Orion Lake. The maleficaria that hunted El and her Scholomance classmates are now attacking wizards across the globe, and malevolent forces seek to destabilize the wizarding world from within. El's bereavement is cut short when former classmates and elite wizards call upon her destructive powers, turning the prophesied destroyer of enclaves into their potential savior. Novik's third "Scholomance" book (following The Last Graduate) leaves the confines of the deadly academy, introduces, a host of new characters, and illustrates how wizard society functions within the world's most powerful enclaves. Series fans won't miss a beat, but the worldbuilding, much of which is conveyed through El's inner monologues, may be too dense for new readers. Narrator Anisha Dadia excels at voicing British Indian teenager El, infusing the dialogue with sarcasm and frustration. She also displays considerable range, performing an entire cast with distinct voices and accents. VERDICT Should satisfy Novik's many fans and appeal to mature fans of Harry Potter, dark-fantasy lovers, and those who enjoyed Lev Grossman's The Magicians.--Andy Myers
