About the book
The High Council (Royal Institute of Magic #6)
The closing volume of a magical adventure series for young readers, as an embattled institute and its allies push back an invasion of dark elves. Guardians, strange armour, a secret council and one evil king to bring down.
Tension is high at the Royal Institute of Magic, as the Directors of each of the Departments, Spellswords, Wardens, Traders, Scholars and Diplomats, work together with their allies to push back the dark elf invasion, led by King Suktar.
But Ben Greenwood knows the truth: the only real way they're going to win is if he and the Guardians do the unthinkable and infiltrate the heart of the dark elf homeland, ending the evil king’s rule once and for all.
As if that wasn’t enough, a new power has come into play. Queen Elizabeth was aware of it all those years ago, and she predicted it would continue to influence their mission to the bitter end: the High Council.
Can the Guardians harness the strange magic of the armour? And will it really be enough to bring down such a powerful wizard as the dark elf king? In a race against time, and with his friends beside him, Ben Greenwood must face his greatest challenge yet.
Victor Kloss's The High Council is the sixth and final book in the Royal Institute of Magic series, a thrilling adventure for young readers who love fantastical stories, spellbinding worlds, and unforgettable heroes.
Praise for the Royal Institute of Magic series:
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ a cross between Harry Potter and Percy Jackson in that the characters are always on the move at a sort of breathless pace.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ … you don't have to be a magical creature to use magic. Cool.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Wonderful Read! Not just for kids, adults will enjoy it just as much!
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ … a great sense of adventure, the story line never lagged, and his characters are well defined.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's kind of like a steam-punk version of magic…
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ … original with diverse characters and enough action and mystery to entertain teens to adults.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It is honestly one of the few books that I have enjoyed as much as Harry Potter.
