Review by: Saraswati
I read this
with my child for the Summer Reading requirements. I was not impressed,
but I can see the appeal to those "slightly" younger than me. The best
part was the added assignment regarding learning
about alchemy. This book just read like a a story hanging on to a
lucrative theme (Harry Potter vs. Twilight vs. etc.) The Alchemy in this
case is magic not an attempt at science (but abused by sales...sorry)
story. It was a basic good vs. bad story with lots
of fighting. I was sad it was a required reading assignment, but then I
do not teach Freshmen HS English.
