This was a fun read. It follows Horatio "Race" Bailey Jr, son of a famous magician after his father's untimely death after one of his magic tricks is tampered with during a show. When Race's home is ransacked by strange men looking for a trinket his dad gave him only a few days earlier, Race isn't sure what to do. He and his best friends Penny and Max find themselves pulled into a secret government agency for magical arts, but he isn't sure who he can trust. Race and Penny come to find out that they hold an ancient artifact that might let them speak to the dead, or it might bring on the zombie apocalypse.
Race soon realizes that the people he thought he could trust are actually not trustworthy at all. Race soon finds himself in a magical battle and he must rely on all of those magic tricks he thought he hated to survive.
This was a quick, fast paced read. This is a standalone but is definitely open for more magical adventures as Race has taken up his father's mantle as magician and secret agent with Penny and Max by his side.

A fun read that kept me guessing what was going to happen next and turning the pages to find out! It was a true teenage story of the misunderstood teen but in this version the main character discovers he knows very little about everything he thought to be true and goes on a crazy adventure that leads to self discovery. The ending wraps up the story nicely without leaving you hanging but the characters are so like able you hope for more adventures to share with them.
