This series is ok. It is quick paced, has decent character development and introduces the reader to many different worlds. Its weakness comes from being so quick...Tim seems to guess himself into serious magical feats without any guidance. It's a little implausible, but better magic mentorship would slow the series down. Overall a decent series without major annoyances. (
