Hard or soft magic, what makes a magic system good. How do the rules differ between hard magic and soft magic? What ever you do just write it well

I'm still reading Perdido Street Station and there is just such a massive screw up in logic I had to turn on the camera. Some people like hard magic systems and some like soft, but holy crap authors need to at least understand what the magic does!
