Shards of magic are powerful fragments of mystical energy that exist in various fantasy worlds. These shards are often the key to unlocking immense power and can be found scattered throughout the land. They are usually associated with a particular element or source of magic, such as fire, ice, or nature. The shards can be used to enhance the abilities of magic wielders and grant them new spells or abilities. One of the main purposes of shards of magic is to serve as a narrative device in fantasy stories. They can be sought after by heroes and villains alike, leading to quests and adventures to find them.
After the 3rd failed Hitachi/Original (and a host of expensive/crappy cordless devices) we decided to upgrade to the Doxy. Loved the Doxy, BUT. that thing is big and heavy. Great texture on the handle. Nice buttons. Much longer cord than the Hitachi. But why isn't the head silicone? We didn’t really mind the few little downsides though, but then it broke! To be fair it got broken. Snapped. The plastic handle casing cracked and it snapped at the metal ring that forms the collar at the base of the narrow neck that connects the head. WTF? Don't know how it happened. Did it fall out of bed when it had been cast aside one night after we'd moved on to other amusements? I dunno. Maybe it got wedged in the sex toy drawer and broke when the drawer was shut? Did I step on it? All I know is it died an untimely death (probably my fault) and will be sadly missed.
I ve said on here before that my whole recent sex toy obsession first began a little over a year ago when our Old Faithful Hitachi Magic Wand died due to a short in the electrical cord. I dissected the first one to figure out what went wrong - the spring drive shaft that connects the motor in the handle to the spinning cam in the head had gotten bent or something and it just didn t go anymore.

REVIEW: The Magic Wand Rechargeable Cordless Vibrator
I’ve said on here before that my whole recent sex toy obsession first began a little over a year ago when our Old Faithful Hitachi Magic Wand died due to a short in the electrical cord. I sort of wish to this day I'd just replaced the cord, but who knows, maybe it's all for the best. My wife and I had enjoyed it for over a decade, we were Old School sex toy people. Dignified in our product choices. No jelly rabbits for us thank you, we'd prefer something endorsed by Betty Dodson.
We ended up replacing our old standby with 2 of the new Original Magic Wands by Vibratex in succession. These were, very close to the "original" Hitachi, but with minor slight differences (wattage, parts maybe?). Both these broke. I dissected the first one to figure out what went wrong - the spring drive shaft that connects the motor in the handle to the spinning cam in the head had gotten bent or something and it just didn’t go anymore. Saved the receipt on the second one and may get a replacement but that's another story.

But then there suddenly appears The Magic Wand Rechargeable Cordless Vibrator. Fuck it. In for Penney, In for a Pound.
Best decision in a Long Time. It's gorgeous. Looks like the Star Trek version of the original original. Silicone Head. Blue LED Lights. All the power of the corded version. WITH NO CORD. If I was going to criticize one thing it would be that they included the fucking nonsensical "patterns". Who likes those? Ya, nobody. Anyway, I WOULD knock points for this EXCEPT they put them on a separate button! Genius. I mean, I don't know, maybe there are perverts out there that need those fucking stupid patterns. Who am I to judge? My point is they put them on a whole separate little button. And they gave it 100% more power settings! 4! Ya, the Doxy has like 10, but who can really tell 5 from 6? Anyway. It has a on/off button, a speed button which advances it up through the 4 speeds each time you push it, and a 3rd button that goes though 3 different vibration patterns. And did I say cordless? Yes, Cordless! It's almost as if it grew wings! Well, not wings exactly, but this is amazing! And if the battery runs out on you you can attach the cord and it will run on AC!
I don’t think there’s really anything out there to compare it with in terms cordless vibrators. I would guess the Lelo Smart Wand Large is as strong, but that thing is CRAZY expensive and it has those obnoxious Lelo controls with the patterns. Did I mention my dislike of vibration patterns? And what is that “ergonomic” bent handle about on that thing?
The New Magic Wand Rechargeable Cordless Vibrator is pretty close to perfect! If you like the Hitachi/Original Magic Wand you will LOVE the new cordless model. And the price is great too. We bought it at SheVibe for $125. We bought the Doxy from Tantus for $130. The Smart Wand Large goes for $170.

Overall, it just didn't live up to my expectations, and I wouldn't recommend it to others who are looking for an engaging and well-crafted fantasy novel.
2. Sarah - 3/5 - I found "Shards of Magic" to be an okay read, but nothing special. The plot was predictable, and the twists felt forced and unoriginal. The writing style was also quite simplistic, and I felt like the author missed the opportunity to delve deeper into the world and its magic system. The characters had potential, but they lacked depth and complexity, making it difficult to emotionally invest in their journey. While the book had its moments, it ultimately fell short of being a truly memorable fantasy novel.

The pacing was all over the place, with unnecessary filler scenes that added nothing to the overall story. The world-building was lackluster, and the magic system felt underdeveloped and poorly explained. I struggled to connect with the protagonist and found myself not caring about their journey.
