What I thought: My pattern with these books seems to involve me finishing a book and not having a back up in my handbag. So I head to the library and borrow the next in the series. The thing is, I’m always glad when I do! This proved to be yet another excellent book in this series. The storylines are interesting and engaging and I love seeing characters such as Will, Alyss and Horace grow and change. There are another 5 books in the series and I look forward to each of them.
Recommended for: those who want a quality YA fantasy series.
