Wow!! This book was amazing, I absolutley loved it and am eagerly awaiting the next installment. This started out with action and ended up with action and so much in between. It was the perfect mix of fantasy, action, adventure, and magic. I had a very hard time putting this book down and keep thinking to myself what a great movie this would make. The bonus is that the author has illustrated the book herself and the art is amazing, bringing the book even more to life. This book was just plain fantastic.
