Finished book 3

In a book series I was reading, where the main character ends up becoming the apprentice of the evil magician and I have to say that I'm sad, deeply sad, that it took this turn and is really more of a cautionary tale. I don't know that I'll be reading book 4 in the series. What a beautiful and whimsical world that the author built though. I'll have to keep it in my memory. Ive taken so much comfort in this imaginary world over the last month. I'll never forget it, but I can't really support the direction the series went in. It definitely really inspired the kind of world building that I want to be able to do with the fantasy book I'm writing though and it definitely gave me some cool ideas to take note of.
