Four elements of power, four mages-in-training learning to control them. In Book 1 of the Circle of Magic Quartet, gifted young weaver Sandry is brought to the Winding Circle community. There she meets Briar, a former thief with a way with plants; Daja, an outcase gifted at metalcraft; and Tris, whose connection with the weather unsettles everyone, including herself. The four misfits are taught how to use their magic, but when disaster strikes, it's up to Sandry to weave together four different kinds of power to save herself, her friends, and Winding Circle.
Four young misfits find themselves living in a strictly disciplined temple community where they become friends while also learning to do crafts and to use their powers, especially magic.

So, I love this series. LOVE it.
I like everything Pierce has written to some extent (haven't read the white tiger stuff yet), but it's always been this series (the Emelan universe) above all others. If I ever had to choose what one series to take to a desert island, with nothing else to read for the rest of my life, this would be the series. Over Harry Potter, Hunger Games, whatever.
This book especially is the one I've read the most over the years (probably in part because the rest of the extended series was slowly being published), and the one I always eventually went back to. I don't even know how many times I've actually read it.
So I was super excited, after coming across the Mark Reads/Watches site, that he had read and like the Tortall books and was planning on reading the Emelan books as well. If you're not familiar with his site, it's... similar to audio books, I guess.
He reads the books out loud on Youtube, only it's interspersed with his own reactions and thoughts as he reads and reacts to what he's reading. He is very emotive, which only makes it that much more entertaining. It's everything you usually wish for when introducing a friend to something you love, and watching how they react, hoping they love it too. That's probably why it's so entertaining.
Plus there's the discussions and commentary by his fans on each chapter, giving you a chance to discuss the series with other fans afterwards.
He read this book starting back in October, despite my only listening to it now. At the moment, he's already reading Cold Fire from the Circle Opens (as well as some of Pratchett's novels), so there's several videos up to watch. I'd suggest having a copy of the book at hand, however, so you can follow along as he reads - the extra commentary might be confusing to some, and he can read quickly at some points.
Yet another way to enjoy one of my all-time favourite books!
