Not for adults

This is a children's book. Not for the Potter fans as this is really just a children's book.

Great for the kids though!

A fun story.

This was a fun story, if targeted at a slightly younger YA audience then the books I usually go for. I still found myself wanting to know what happens next and enjoying the story as it unfolded.

meh....

the writer obviously trying to have a story with a complicated plot actually made me pretty much work to finish the book.
the characters were all so similar that it led to confusion. the villain was flat and not very believable as a villain.

it was meh.
