This is a series that I really enjoyed as a kid. But like The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants series I think it has served its purpose in my life. Yes, I'll probably revisit the series again, but it just doesn't have the same magic I remember from before. Dealing with Dragons comes the closest. P...
Daystar is living as perfectly normal of a life as someone can while living on the edge of the Enchanted Forest until a wizard visits his mother and gets melted. With no explanation, his mother than hands him a sword and pushes him into the forest and tells him to figure it out. It doesn't take him ...

Daystar was a nice character although i liked more Shiara. she had a temperament. there was still mocking to the delicate, princess that all they knew to do was screaming in a po...
Not your average getting moved out of the house story especially when your mom sends you off with a sword! Love it!
3 12 stars. My least favorite of the series but still quite good. Recommended for all!

It was like the author didn't actually care about her characters. I also thought th...
