“I enjoyed the interaction of all the characters. They played off each other well. The author of the book did a great job of holding my attention. As I read the book I noticed that it was important to pickup on the small details. The author left clues like bread crumbs to follow, hinting at what would take place next. I am waiting with anticipation for the next book in the trilogy! I would highly recommend this book for all ages.”
