comment
A trilogy of fantasy novels by Celia S. Friedman, known for her earlier work the Coldfire Trilogy. The Magister Trilogy books' titles in order are Feast of Souls, Wings of Wrath and Legacy of Kings.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The series takes place on an unnamed fantasy world, where magic is fueled by the power of human souls, or athra. Every time a witch casts a spell, it uses up a portion of his or her allotted lifespan. The exception to this rule are the titular Magisters, a brotherhood of magic users whose powers and lifespans are unlimited. They guard the secret of their power closely, fearing that the rest of the human population would turn against them if it was revealed.The series focuses largely on Kamala, the first woman to successfully make the Transition and become a Magister. Other major characters are Andovan Aurelius, a young prince who has contracted a mysterious and uncurable disease known as the Wasting, Colivar, an ancient and powerful Magister, and Siderea Aminestas, the Witch Queen of the free state Sankara. The events are set against a backdrop of ancient enemies returning after thousands of years to threaten human civilization.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Always Chaotic Evil: Played straight in the first book with the Souleaters. Played with in the second book, which recasts them as animalistic predators.

And the Adventure Continues: With the Queens dead, Kamala and Colivar (who are either a couple or well on their way to it) set out to join the efforts in exterminating the rest of the Souleaters. Also Lazaroth may or may not still be out there.

Anti-Hero: Kamala, Colivar, and any other Magister who's a protagonist. Kamala in particular is a Type IV- she's got just enough of a sense of compassion and justice to keep her sympathetic when taken together with her exceptionally crappy backstory, but her magic is still Powered by a Forsaken Child and there's a very real, very scary darkness in her.
