Review

Written by Harold

“Nothing special” is the best way to describe Owen Reeder―at least that's what he's been told all his life. When a stranger visits his father's bookstore, Owen's ordinary life spirals out of control and right into a world he didn't even know existed. Owen believes the only gift he possesses is his ability to devour books, but he is about to be forced into a battle that will affect two worlds: his and the unknown world of the Lowlands. Perfect for readers ages 10 to 14 who enjoy a fast-paced story packed with action, fantasy, and humor.

 

From the Back Cover

"Owen struggled to pull himself up but had to let go of a tree root to elude the rock. He began to slide over the side of the ledge, his body teetering. The cliff angled so steeply that he had to fight his way up or fall to his death."

As Owen and Watcher continue their search to find the King's Son, they encounter the Changeling-a creature with the ability to change into anything, even other people. Will Owen be tricked by the Changeling into leaving his mission? How can Owen know who to trust?

Owen has always believed his only gift is his ability to devour books, but the battle he finds himself in will affect two worlds: his and the Lowlands.

Come along with Owen as he continues his quest to find the King's Son.
