Midnight Magic Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Avi weaves an intricate web of political plots and magical suspicions. In a Renaissance country that resembles Spain or Portugal, a reported magician named Mangus and his servant boy Fabrizo are brought to the king. A ghost is haunting the young Princess Teresina, who is to be wed to villainous Count Scarazoni in a few days time. All the while, the possibility that the ghost is the murdered Prince Lorenzo hangs over them.
Fabrizo soon is submerged into a twisting tale of treachery and power, spirituality and trickery. Avi's characters are intriguing and real, especially weary Mangus, independent Fabrizo, and mischievous Teresina. Some of the characters are a bit flat, including the queen and Scarazoni, but it does not detract much from the story; Lorenzo's whereabouts are somewhat obvious after a while. However, Avi's imagery and dialogue are wonderful, and the magic woven into the words makes this an interesting and enjoyable read.

Dragon's Eye Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm 68 years old. Have read all the Nancy Drew books, the Farley Boys. Love mysteries. I'm sure most teens and younger kids do to. This book is good reading for boys and girls. The girls actions in this book is very team related. And the father in the book is a great role model for guys, he was marvelous. It had humor, real fast action. After buying and reading the book am now going to buy a copy for my granddaughter. This book is very compatible to the Harry Potter books. Courtney Furman, the writer, has a great immagination. I think it would make a great movie. I'd like to see it be made into a hard bound book and all the librarys carry the book. I highly recommend the book.

Sapphiry Rose and the Journey to the Inner Core Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. Sapphiry Rose is a delightful and intriguing story of the life changing experiences of a young girl who lives in one world but belongs in another. The author's detailed description of Sapphiry's life as she knows it, her realization of her true identity and where she belongs gives the reader a vivid picture of the differences between the world she knows and her adjustment to the world of the inner core. A fascinating story that is hard to put down.
