Honestly, the best evolution feels organic, not retconned. There's nothing worse than a late-series 'twist' that a magic user can actually do something that would have solved book one's problem in five minutes. Good evolution comes from exploration. Characters experiment, uncover lost lore, or blend different traditions. In 'The Witcher' books, magic is presented as a difficult, scholarly discipline. Its 'evolution' across the saga is subtle, showing its political utility and personal cost more than flashy new spells. The system deepens through context, not constant new additions.

First-person versus third-person perspective changes everything. In first-person, the reader is locked into the protagonist's understanding of the magic, which can be limited or wrong. This creates great opportunities for discovery and surprise. In third-person omniscient, the author can explain the system more directly, but might lose a sense of wonder. The choice of POV is a tactical decision in how to balance exposition and plot momentum.

For pure escapism, the magic system is the vehicle. It's the thing we wish were real. Who hasn't wanted to wave a wand or summon a familiar? The best fantasy novel crafts a system so appealing and coherent that you find yourself daydreaming about which type of mage you'd be, practicing the hand gestures, wondering about the feel of the power. It invites you to play in its world long after you've finished reading.

Sometimes the magic doesn't evolve—our understanding of it does. What was first presented as divine blessing is revealed as a parasitic curse. What seemed like a rigid elemental chart is actually a fluid spectrum of emotional intent. The system was always that complex; the trilogy is just the slow, painful process of pulling back the curtain of propaganda and myth. That kind of revelation can be more impactful than adding new spells, because it reframes everything that came before.

Robin Hobb's Farseer books. The Skill and the Wit. Two opposing magic systems, one of disciplined, intrusive mental communication and influence, the other a wild, beast-linked sense that's reviled as filthy. Their complexity isn't in the number of rules, but in the profound psychological and societal consequences for the user.
Watching Fitz navigate the pull of both, and the way they warp his identity, is a masterclass in making magic feel intensely personal and morally fraught.

I'm a sucker for magic that's tied to a specific art form. In 'The Starless Sea', magic is in stories, keys, and bees—a metaphorical, labyrinthine system that defies conventional rules. It's less about combat and more about discovery, connection, and preservation of narratives. The 'system' is the act of reading and interpreting itself. It won't satisfy someone who wants clear-cut rules, but for readers who see magic in libraries and lost tales, it's pure enchantment. It proves that a system can be effective through beauty and mystery alone, relying on the reader's desire to believe.
