"Spellbinding: An excellent and well written book. I was captivated from start to finish. I don't normally read fantasy novels as I find them a bit too "fantastical," but I enjoyed the escapism and adventure in this book." (Steven Ray Montgomery, 5 stars)

If you liked Harry Potter, you’d probably enjoy this book. It doesn’t have any wands, witches or wizard hats, but still has a charm and appeal all of its own.
