Lost Book Thoughts's Reviews > Kyle Demore and the Timekeeper's Key

(4.5 Stars)
Action, adventure, friendship, magic, and lots of twists and turns made Kyle Demore and the Timekeeper's Key an engaging and exciting read. Just imagine if Percy Jackson and Harry Potter had gone to school together, studying magic in another dimension.
The creative plot was what I liked best about the story. Each new plot turn kept me looking forward to know what would happen next. While the Masters (the teachers) and the idea of a magical school is in no way original, the topics of studying, dealing with keys and new dimensions, was very refreshing and new. The character of Kyle, and many others, inspired emotional reactions and they felt very relatable.
My main problem with the book was that I often felt like, especially near the beginning of the story, there was over explanation in the dialog. Admittedly, some of it fits within what you expect of certain characters. Still, I think it doesn't give the intelligence of readers enough credit and it allows for less mystery.
Still, overall I absolutely enjoyed Kyle Demore and the Timekeepers Key. It is a middle grade book, but I would recommend it to fantasy readers of all ages. Especially if you enjoy Harry Potter or Percy Jackson! Happy reading. :]
