This book is part of a series. So far all three books are well written and gives an interesting story.

I have seen this called 'an Indigenous Narnia' and I was surprised how very accurate that felt to it . . . and yet how very different the seemingly-similar threads of story truly are.

The adventures and dangers the children go through feel very real for being part of a fantastical world, and somehow intertwined not too jarringly with the very disparate arc of Morgan learning so much more about herself and her past, though there are still large missing pieces to that. . .
