Blizzard of the Blue Moon (2006)

This was really nice. I'm intrigued to see what, if anything, will happen with the new magicians we meet in this book! Some kind of continuing conflict would be nice. ( )

In this exciting new Merlin Mission, Jack and Annie go back in time to New York City, during one of the darkest periods in the city's history — the Great Depression. Even worse, the city is in the grip of a terrible snowstorm. To stop the blizzard, Jack and Annie must save the unicorn made famous in the Cloisters' medieval tapestries. But will that be enough to help a city that faces so many troubles?

This magical book, by Mary Pope Osborne, is indeed a pleasure to reed.

But, will they run into trouble along the way? Find out in this fabulous book. Recommended for fantasy lovers ages 8 and up. ( )
