Fantasy Book Critic is proud to be a part of 'World of Weir' Blog Tour. Each tour stop, we explore some of the finer points of her hit series, all in preparation for the release of the final book in the series 'The Sorcerer Heir' (scheduled for release October 21, 2014). 

Week 4 is about exploring The Enchanters. Not sure who they are? Let's explore that!

Who are the Enchanters?

Enchanters use mind magic to seduce and manipulate others.

While Enchanters are less powerful than Wizards, they are the most proficient with mind magic and have the ability to charm, influence, and create emotions, particularly passion, attraction, and love. Wizards often have difficulty identifying Enchanters even when Enchanters use their power, and thus Enchanters can deceive and influence Wizards if they can snare them before the Wizard puts up defenses to avoid manipulation. Enchanters can alter their appearance in order to be more appealing to others. Physical contact makes their powers stronger.  The most powerful Enchanters can even influence or persuade a Wizard who is aware of their powers. Many Enchanters submit to a Wizard sponsor who protects them from other Wizards, at a cost. According to the Rules, Enchanters were created for the enjoyment and pleasure of Wizards. Enchanters are often associated with the color purple.

ABOUT THE SORCERER HEIR

The can’t-miss finale to the beloved and bestselling Heir Chronicles series.

The delicate peace between Wizards and the underguilds (Warriors, Seers, Enchanters, and Sorcerers) still holds by the thinnest of threads, but powerful forces inside and outside the guilds threaten to sever it completely. Old friends and foes return as new threats arise in this stunning and revelatory conclusion to the beloved and bestselling Heir Chronicles series.
