Although Rhennthyl is the son of a leading wool merchant in L'Excelsis, the capital of Solidar, the most powerful nation on Terahnar, he has spent years becoming a journeyman artist and is skilled and diligent enough to be considered for the status of master artisan-in another two years. Then, in a single moment, his entire life is transformed when his master patron is killed in a flash fire, and Rhenn discovers he is an imager-one of the few in the entire world of Terahnar who can visualize things and make them real.
Rhenn is forced to leave his family and join the Collegium of Imagisle. Because of their abilities (they can do accidental magic even while asleep) and because they are both feared and vulnerable, imagers must live separately from the rest of society. In this new life, Rhenn discovers that all too many of the "truths" he knew were nothing of the sort. Every day brings a new threat to his life. He makes a powerful enemy while righting a wrong, and he begins to learn to do magic in secret. Imager is the innovative and enchanting opening of an involving new fantasy story.

Really interesting magic system. Ironically, I found the book while looking for magic school series, but actually enjoyed him painting the most.

Vet inte riktigt vad jag tycker om den här boken. Uppläsaren är ok men för övrigt känns det mest som om boken pågår och sen slutar den bara, det är ordentligt slut men man är bara plötsligt där utan att veta riktigt vad som hade hänt

This is a Hero's Journey fantasy. Thus predictable (3/5) However the magic system, the character development, world building and plot development is very good (4/5). I wanted to know what happens to Rhennthyl, so it's a page turner (5/5). It also contains a very moderate amount of romance (which would normally put me off) - but the MC's love interest is both intriguing and intelligent and has its own development arc. The author very wisely and tastefully refrains from being descriptive past handholding and kissing. (5/5)
