New magic which are those who can control magic element with their mind, and Old magic which are inherited by bloodline passed down generations. There is also a third-type of modern "magic", those who works with chemistry and philosophy, the Alchemist.

I just loved the characters in this book, first we have Addie, an intelligent and strong female Alchemist who has no memory before the bombing of
The story and the writing just flaws together so well. Very well developed characters, and an intriguing fantasy world that has a solid world building, which I can't get enough of.
