The Irregular At Magic High School, Vol. 2 - Light Novel Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
Tatsuya and Miyuki Shiba are brother and sister, but they share a bond that transcends mere blood relation.

Miyuki's a Bloom, one of the elite students of Magic High, while Tatsuya's a Weed, with low expectations and even lower levels of respect. But having skillfully diffused a tense situation, Tatsuya finds himself recruited by the school's disciplinary committee and soon discovers there's more to Magic High than he realized...

(Disclaimer: So let me first say that, yes I am a fan of this series and thus I've read the fan translations of the books through #14 and watched the anime several times.)This book picks up where the first left off at and continues the story through the next arc (if you're familiar with the anime then this book covers from episode 4 through episode 7). Short of a few proofreading errors, the book overall is well written to the point that it progresses the story along at a good pace without feeling the need to rehash prior events. On the average size for a light novel, weighing in at 176 pages of text, I completed the work in a single evening at home. The brief glossary at the beginning of the book is a nice addition for those who've either read the first a while back or need a reminder now and then for some key terms and outline of who's who for the major characters (something I found myself doing after about book 9 while reading the fan translations back in the day).
I am a big fan of the anime and have read the fan translations, so any review may be a bit bias. Volume 2 continues right where book 1 left off and finishes the enrollment arc. Book 2 follows Tatsuya Shiba as he adjusts to life in 1st Magic High. The book is well written and builds upon the first book in giving you not only a sense of the world the characters inhabit, but also the grows each side character. There is no real rehash of the events in the prior book, so it might be good to go back and re-read the first book if you don't remember all the events that took place.The only reason I did not give this 5 stars is due to the proofreading and translation errors. I always give some leeway when dealing with translations, but when you have to stop and reread a sentence to understand what the translator meant, which is several times, there are parenthetical remarks that make no sense in terms of the story and weren't present in the first book, or the editor misspells a character's name or puts in a character into a scene that was not there before, you have to take notice. Since it is taking about 3 months in between each volume to come out, there is no reason to have these mistakes. Hopefully Yen Press will fix all this for what I know will be a great series.
This is a fantastic anime. The Manga and Light Novels add to my appreciation of the stories told.
