The Archimage's Fourth Daughter — Lyndon Hardy

Finally! A book in the Magic by the Numbers series that has a female as the protagonist!

Briana knew she should obey her father, Alodar, the Archimage. She did not have any experience for the job, but adventure beckoned. How hard could it be?

Quite hard, it turns out. Learning centers called colleges rather than magician palaces. The stock market. Erupting volcanoes. Underground aliens plotting to escape from their frigid prison. Three brothers, each with his own agenda on how best to proceed. One has a plan to destroy all native life in a very simple way.

A welcome addition to the series. Would like to see more â€" Christopher Macy

A stand-alone tale of discovery. No need to read any preceding novel in the series first
