Millenniums Rule
Having enjoyed reading the other books by Trudi Canavan it was an easy decision to purchase the first one in this new series by her.
The world, or more accurately the world’s this series is set in is quite a bit different than her previous series and is therefore much more diverse and interesting. The first novel is split between two worlds, following two different characters. I enjoyed the chapters set in the industrial world more than those set in the priest’s world, mostly because the storyline was more interesting and moved along at a better pace, whereas the events in the priest's world seem to be rather slow and tedious.
The second book I found to be totally different from the first, both in setting, events and pacing, all of which were better than the first.
To date, November 2021, I have not gotten around to purchasing the remaining two volumes in this series, but I will eventually.
Thief's Magic: Millennium's Rule: Book 01
SOMETIMES MAGIC LIES WITHIN . . .
When the young student Tyen unearths an ancient book, it opens the door to a realm of mystery and danger. For it contains a clue to a disaster threatening the world.
Elsewhere, in a land ruled by priests, Rielle has been taught that to use magic is to steal from the Angels. Yet she has a talent for it, and desperate times may force her to risk the Angels' wrath.
But not everything is as Tyen and Rielle have been raised to believe. Not the nature of magic - and not even the people they trust.

Angel of Storms: Millennium's Rule: Book 02
A DARK DANGER LIES IN WAIT . . .
Tyen trains students in the ways of magic, but his teaching may soon be outlawed. Rumour has it that the formidable ruler of all worlds, long believed to be dead, is back and is harshly enforcing his old laws - including the one forbidding schools of magic. As teachers and pupils flee, Tyen is left with no home and no purpose . . . except to fulfil the promise he made to Vella, the sorcerer imprisoned in a book. Tyen must decide what he is willing to do to free her.
Elsewhere, Rielle's peaceful new life as a tapestry weaver has been shattered by a local war. As defeat looms, the powerful Angel of Storms appears and invites Rielle to join the artists of his heavenly realm. But what will he require in return for this extraordinary offer?
