The first in the Tartan Magic trilogy. Twins Jennifer and Peter, along with four-year-old Molly are pitted against Michael Scot, the most evil of Scotland’s dark wizards. An interesting plot involving Patience, an old card game, and an ancient map. However, the characters are flat, and thus, the story lacks snap. There's nothing there to prompt the reader to feel any emotion about what happens to these characters.

I would recommend this book to very young readers. It's pretty simple and would be good for those enjoying books like the Magic Treehouse series. Any older will find it too easy and simple.

I thought this book was OK. It was an average, entertaining reading. Nothing special. I'm hoping it will get better as the series progresses. It has good potential.
