They basically have access to the same spells as Wizards, so I don't think this works.

Based on the class description, they may also have the ability to learn new spells spontaneously without a teacher. I don't recall whether that's an enhancement to Magery, or its own advantage.

You could give them Wild Talent (Spells, Retention).

In D&D, they are limited to a very few spells per spell-level, but can choose anything from the list. With GURPS Magic's prerequisite chain, this doesn't really work. The closest fit (IMO) would have each Sorcerer choosing a set of Colleges that they have access to.

Ah, yeah, that's the one. It might have to be limited to "learning only", if they can't use it to cast spells on the fly.
