Review of The Vexed Generation (Magic 2.0 Book 6) by Scott Meyer

I finished reading The Vexed Generation (Magic 2.0 Book 6) by Scott Meyer.📚

The action of this book takes place around ten years after the main storyline. Mattie and Brewster are the teenaged children of Martin and Gwen Banks. They know nothing about the magical past of their parents and are pretty surprised when they find their parents frozen like a statue in the living room.

With only minimal clues, the two start to solve the riddle of what happened to their parents and how to undo it.

Opinion

Please note that from here on out, the text can contain spoilers of the book.

I was thrilled when I found a new book in the Magic 2.0 series for me to read. Unfortunately, I was disappointed by the book. After a strong start, it just had no natural substance in the story. And it was a waste of an excellent idea.

I still like the world, but again the author mostly used this book and the surrounding framework for not funny one of jokes, when this universe would provide you with so much potential and philosophical questions to explore.

The first half of the book still had some tension when the twins needed to find out how magic works and discover their parents’ secrets. Then in the middle of the book, the voice of the story changes completely. The narrator changes away from the twins, which I could not understand why. And in my opinion, it also did not provide much to the overall story. From there, the plot just slowly flows through the pages of the book. And I was nearly at the point to give up finishing the book.

I can recommend the first two issues of this series. Perhaps also the third book. But then I would stop reading it further.
