Magyk
I bought this book for my 11 year old daughter. She enjoyed it so much I read it myself. I couldn't put it down! A very enjoyable read. I will be going out tomorrow to buy Flyte. I disagree about the 9-12 age rating. I would recomend this book for ages 9 + and leave it at that.

As an adult teaching in Primary school I am always on the lookout for new books to encourage younger reluctant readers to get the reading bug. I just loved it and so did many of the children I introduced it to especially the boys (11-12 years) Can't wait for the next instalment

A real page turner
Magyk was a very good book. The make-believe words were a little weird and threw me off a little but otherwise it kept me picking up the book every chance I got. I recommend to everyone. I am 25 years old and I read it to help my brother with a report and I ended up enjoying it.

This book was very exciting, it grips you, you want to just keep reading, the end makes you want to run out and get the next one. Ms. Sage has written this book very well. When I was done reading, I just wanted more.

waiting for no. 3
Not all the ideas introduced in Magyk are original, but they all get an original twist, and that's quite a lot in my book. The chracters are realy wonderfully developed. The plot kept me going one chapter after the other. I'm starting Flyte as I write these words, and true to my title- waiting for the 3rd one to come. It was one of my best buying gambles of recent years.

I really looooove this book!
This book was incredible and I loved it except for all the character building in the story. I hate character building, but otherwise Magyk was exceptional and everyone should read it. Even basic readers because this book was kind of basic and not so advanced for readers like me.

this book opened up doors in my head that i didnt even know i had; this is the BEST book ever and im not to much into reading. Put this on your MUST read list. I cant wait till the second book comes out.

I loved it! (age 14)
Magyk is a thrilling novel filled with pages and pages of never ending exitement! It is one of those books that you can never put down. The mystery within the story has many smaller mysteries within it, and i think that Angie Sage did and exceptional job! Can't wait for the nnext book to come out!
