The Copper Gauntlet

The Copper Gauntlet, by Holly Black and Cassandra Clare, is the second book in the Magisterium Series. The first book is called the Iron Trial. The book is about the protagonists named Callum (Call for short), Tamara, and Aaron. Call is the evil one (more will be explained in paragraph two), Tamera is the smart one, and Aaron is the makar. A makar is a chaos wizard (mage) who can summon chaos and devour things.  

The book is about three wizards (Call, Aaron, and Tamara) who go to wizard school. They are in the copper year (Year Two) and recently Call found out he was the “enemy of death”. Basically an evil wizard. His father tried to remove his chaos wolf named Havoc’s heart. So Call got angry and used earth magic to knock him out, and then gathered his things and Havoc and left. They went to Tamara’s house. Tamara was rich, like rich rich, and they were throwing a party. A makar is the “Savior” against the enemy of death. The Alkahest is stolen probably by Call’s dad. The alkahest is a gauntlet that can retract a makar’s chaos magic and will kill the makar, Alistar (Call’s Dad) was going to use it on Call because he might be the enemy of death. It involves a chaos ridden animal’s heart. And Havoc is a chaos ridden wolf, connect the dots and you get havoc is in danger.

The book is really good so far! I read the first one and I was lucky to pre-order the second! I rate it 10/10! I would definitely recommend it!
