Major Themes
Evaine is described in the novels as holding a special place in her father's heart. Although both of her brothers inherit various traits from their illustrious sire, it is Evaine who shares his love of research and scholarship. Her esoteric knowledge is surpassed only by Camber himself, and other characters often defer to her in magical matters, readily acknowledging her mastery of the arcane arts. While Cathan is Camber's legal heir, and Joram is Camber's political heir, Evaine is clearly his magical heir throughout the novels.
