Hello! I’m Cecilia Tan, and right now I’m virtually touring my gay Navy SEAL romance, WATCH POINT. At each stop on the tour, leave comments to be entered to win a gay/queer romance prize pack from yours truly, including not only a copy of Watch Point, but a few of my other books (The Prince’s Boy, Magic University) and a Daron’s Guitar Chronicles swag pack with notebook and stickers.
Article first published as eBook Review: Magic University Book Four – The Poet and the Prophecy by Cecilia Tan on Blogcritics.
Around this time last year, I read the first three Magic University books one after the other, and did a write up here. As I adored the books I was really looking forward to another one in the series. This fourth and final book follows on with the story of Kyle Wadsworth’s education at Veritas – the secret magic university hiding within Harvard’s walls.
The Poet and the Prophecy deals with Kyle’s translation of an ancient prophecy he did for his junior thesis. The trouble is, it was pretty extreme – citing that if Kyle does not find his true love, then the magical world as they know it, will end. When signs of the Burning Days start to show themselves, Kyle’s fellow students and teachers start to worry. The only saving grace is the reappearance of Frost, who is Kyle’s mortal enemy – but Kyle also happens to be in love with him, and is convinced that Frost doesn’t hate him as much as he pretends to. Will Kyle and Frost get it together, or will the Burning Days consume them all?
The Magic University books really need to be read all together to be understood. If you picked up the final book without having read the others, there’s lots going on that you won’t understand. Therefore, if you like the sound of this book, then you should definitely grab all four books and get comfortable – you’re in for an exciting ride! The Poet and the Prophecy is a satisfying conclusion to the series, and one that adult Harry Potter fans will no doubt enjoy.

Even though he attends Veritas, the hidden magical university inside Harvard, Kyle Wadsworth is a typical college junior, spending too much time in the library and trying to balance classes with some semblance of a social life. After having loved and lost, Kyle is shy about striking up new relationships, but when his friendship with enchantment student Lindy Carmichael becomes “friends with benefits” he finds his heart ready to explore new avenues and blossom into love again.
But meanwhile his classes have drawn him into studying an ancient prophecy, and the more Kyle learns, the more the prophecy seems to be about Kyle himself, foretelling doom. Lindy and other students are experiencing gaps in their magic that could point to impending disaster… or is it just that they have been visited in their dreams by a demon-lover? Kyle, ever the hero, sets out to capture the demon and solve the mystery of the prophecy, but to do so he must unravel the mystery in his own heart.

“Cecilia Tan transcends time, space, gravity, and cultural norms in her line of work: erotic science fiction,” according to the San Francisco Weekly. Susie Bright calls her “simply one of the most important writers, editors, and innovators in contemporary American erotic literature.” Tan always considered herself a writer, but her career took off in 1992 when she self-published a chapbook of three kinky science fiction stories entitled Telepaths Don’t Need Safewords–and thus Circlet Press was born. Since that time Circlet Press has published over 70 books of erotic fantasy & science fiction edited by her, with many more on the way, and in her own writing career she has written everything from short stories to paranormal romance novels. Her books include Black Feathers (HarperCollins, 1998), The Velderet (Circlet, 2001), White Flames (Running Press, 2008), Mind Games (Ravenous Romance, 2009), The Siren and The Sword: Magic University Book One (Ravenous Romance, 2009), and many others.
