A nice young adult read, the author was descriptive enough that the reader could visualize the scenes and 'get into' the action. Very enjoyable, will read the next installment. ( )

This book is absolutely amazing! I truly loved it. The story line is intense and holds you captive from start to finish. It has so much action and intrigue and I found many simple life lessons hidden within it. The characters are incredible and the attention to details is out standing. The unknown world these young kids are thrown into sends them on a journey that even dreams could not match. They find out who they really are and open their minds, souls and hearts to fulfill their given destinies. The author S.S. Segran is brilliant with an imagination that soars. I will most definitely be looking for more of her work. This is one of the best books I have ever read and is a favorite in my library that I will surely read again. I highly recommend this book to everyone. You will not be disappointed. ( )
