Review

Amy Neftzger has written a fantasy story that teens will enjoy.  I had a little bit of a hard time getting into the book at the beginning, but I pressed on and came to appreciate Amy’s characters and her fantasy, adventure story.  It is a pretty strait forward read and includes magic and sorcery.  It also appears that this is book three in a series and probably would have made more sense if I had read books one and two in the series.  I would recommend this book to young readers that enjoy fantasy.
