Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by #1 fan!!!
the 1 and only best book in the history of reading!!!
This is the best book I've ever read and I encourage Angie Sage to write more. I think that the book is creative,amazing,and a true 2 thumbs up novel!!! OBVIOUSLY IT IS MUCH BETTER THAN HARRY POTTER!!! If you have not read any of these books you are missing out on a lifetime. In conclusion...the book is a chunk of fun, fantasy, and in between them there is a sprinkle of humor!!!

Rated 3 of 5 of 5 by fantasy lover
it was just ok.
Yes you heard me right I said it was just OK. A lot of people get mad at me when I say it but to me she should have waited until Harry Potter finished. I did enjoy it though for the most part it was quiet a quick read and there wasn't a huge POINT to the whole book. And literature wise it sucked. If you want a real fantasy, read Lord of the Rings and the Dragonlance books those are good. But if you are the mild Narnia fantasy reader then you might like it.

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Kayla

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by omg ttly lved the book (age 11)
wish it had a higher rating for the book magyk
honestly, i have read countless amounts of books in my life. I read the first harry potter book in 1 or 2 grade. This truley was the best book i have read in my life. i can not think of ny book that even came close to being better than this. my personal rating on a 1-10 scale with 10 being best would be a 100. I could not stop reading the second i started, it took me a while but i finnished and read it twice it was so good. I have also read flyte wich is amazing and i can not wait for the third book to come out, and when it does, i want to be the first to get it and finnish it so i can solve all the mysteries before anyone else. and i have to say, agie did an extraordinary job on writing the book and making you want to read non stop until you finnish it. i also think that any of her other books would be spectacular (i have not found any outher books but they probably would be amazingly detailed and describtive). The way she describes everyone is amazing and how they have unique and surprising abilitys and personalitys is truly spectaular. I would recamend this book to any one that can read and appretiates a great book would encorage others to read it. Like i said befor, BEST BOOK I READ IN MY ENTIRE LIFE AND PROBABLY ALWAYS WILL BE!
