Warlock in Training is the first book in TJ Nichols’ Studies in Demonology series. This is the first work of Nichols’ that I’ve read and I must admit that I plowed through it in one day! Nichols created an entrancing binary world where humans and demons interact and work magic. A world which is nearing a tipping point environmentall, one which reminded me of where we find ourselves in our current state of global warming.In the human dimension, here referred to as Vinland, the world is rapidly cooling. Reversely, Demonside, as the land of demons is called, is quickly heating and drying up. These events are triggered by an imbalance of magic, an imbalance wherein the human warlocks are taking more magic from Demonside than they are replenishing. Human warlocks use and summon demons to provide them with magic to cater to individuals able to pay their high fees for services rendered..Enter Angus. The reluctant hero of the story. He is a first year student at East Vinland Warlock College. He is desperately trying to fail his courses and abandon the family legacy of becoming a warlock. He simply wants to study medicine. Or maybe become a vet. He just knows he doesn’t want magic in his life.Enter Saka.The demon mage. With horns. And a prehensile tail. While attempting to fail at summoning a demon, Angus rips through the void to Demonside and in comes Saka, who promptly snatches him back to his world.What ensues is a slow discovery of buried truths and blatant lies perpetrated by the warlocks at the college, by Angus’ father, and by the world at large. Saka and Angus end up working together toward the end of restoring magical balance in the world--a balance that can only be restored through blood, soul, and sex magic. Since this is a romance book, take a gander at which type of magic Saka is an expert in? Warning, aside from sex magic, there is a fair bit of blood magic in the book, so if knives and bloodletting are not your thing, even to restore magic and save the world, maybe you should skip those sections.So, what did I like about the book? I loved the conception of the two co-dependent worlds and how different they were. I also liked how this felt like a metaphor to our current environmental problems: Those in power harvest and consolidate more power with little consequence to the long term effects of their actions be they environmental, social, or political. I also loved Demonside. I wanted to learn more about it--heck, I wanted to visit it and be Saka’s apprentice!What didn’t work for me? For one, the human setting, both spatial and temporal was not well defined for me. I was unclear as to the political structure on the human side, how much power the Warlock College had, and how pervasive around the world/globe the use of magic via demons was. In essence, this is world building in the fantasy and science fiction genre and I felt it could have been more specific. Second, things took a while to get going and Angus was a bit repetitive in his musings. However, the action totally skyrocketed the last quarter of the book.What important things did I learn? Demons have ritualistic sex orgies to raise water from the buried red sands. Demons are matrilineal. Demons have demon animals just like humans. Rugby players make hot magical tutors. And most importantly, spunk=magic.I am anxiously awaiting the next book in Studies in Demonology. Well done, TJ Nichols!
What a smart, thoughtful book. Fantasy/magic is a genre that can be silly, in a literary culture so altered by JK Rowling (all hail), but Nichols does something really interesting. Dreamspinner was smart to pick up this book by TJ Nichols, another fine Australian novelist.In our own world, in my nation, we love to demonize the “other,†whether they be gay people, people of color, or Muslims. In Angus Donohue’s world they demonize, um, demons. The human world is linked to the demon world, called Demonside, by magic. Magic is the source of energy for humans. It is power, and humans who can handle magic (wizards) are hungry for it. Angus is in training to be a warlock, which is a wizard who can call a demon and use that demon’s magic to increase his own power.This all seems very straightforward, until we realize that humans bonded to demons draw on their demon’s magic until the demons is drained and dies. Then they simply dispose of it and call a new one from Demonside. Human students in training to be Warlocks are taught a very clear history: demons are monsters, and will destroy humans if not controlled. This is why warlocks have such cultural power, because they can control demons.Angus Donohue doesn’t want to be a warlock. He wants to be a doctor and is trying to fail his demon-calling exam. When the demon he calls grabs him and takes him through the void to Demonside, Angus’s whole life changes. He learns the truth about demons, and learns the extent of the misinformation being taught at the Warlock College. He learns that magic the drain of magic by greedy warlocks is rapidly destroying Demonside.There is a double parallel that gives Nichols’ narrative a shivery relevance. On the one hand, the demons and their magic are like the oil-rich Muslim nations, whom the West both depends on and vilifies. On the other hand, the relationship between human and demon is uncomfortably like that of master and slave in the good old days in the USA, when slaves were seen as sub-human, to be used and discarded without a thought. There are other parallels, too, and Nichols makes her story more powerful by sticking to the world she has created and letting the readers draw their own conclusions.Nichols gives us very beautiful world-building here, and Saka, Angus’ demon, becomes the mirror-image to Angus himself. Saka is the embodiment of all of the truth about which Angus’ father and the other warlocks have been lying for generations. He becomes the lens through which we see Demonside in all its dark beauty and complexity.I would say that this is not a romance. Saka and Angus’ relationship is critical, and emotionally powerful, but it is simply a piece of the larger story. The narrative is quite erotic, in a way that is essential to the plot. Strangely enough, another parallel that came to mind as I read was in the animated film “Monsters, Inc.,†when Sully and Wazowski realize that the power in a child’s laughter is far greater than the power of a child’s terrified scream.The book ends neatly, but I looked somewhat desperately for a sequel in the works, and found no sign of one on Nichols’ website. However, the title online is subtitled “Studies in Demonology #1†which is a good sign. I felt satisfied at the end of “Warlock in Training,†but was hungry for the next chapter.
I really enjoyed this book. I actually hate that I read it when I did. I wish I'd waited until the series was complete because I have no idea when the next book will be out and I can't wait.This book actually had some pretty good character development, doe the main characters at least. I understand their motivation. There are plenty of "bad guys" but we really only meet one and he is so bad as to rise to the level of ridiculous. I mean, he's a sociopath. That just makes him evil, not even misguided or anything. Just evil.I'm hoping the next book sticks with these two main characters and introduces some interesting characters with the apprentices and other demons. Some comedic moments would be welcome. I also hope we find out more about the bad guys. There is no history of the College given, no explanation as to where they call in government or societal hierarchy. I need these details as opposed to just some nebulas idea of "the College is run by bad guys."Despite these flaws it was still a well told story and I can't wait for more.
