Notability[edit]

I've been reading the notability guidelines for books, and I'm almost sure that this article doesn't meet them. The article has very little room to expand out-of-universe, as it isn't very popular and has no articles (that I can find) which talk about it outside of a plot summary. No awards, no major contributions to society, and Trudi Canavan, the author, isn't terribly significant. The only reason I could see for keeping it up here is because it is the prequel to a slightly more notable series, the Black Magician trilogy. So I'm nominating it for deletion.
