  • Light reading perfect for the pre teens it was written for

    Usually a sequel in a series is not as good as the first book but this one is surprising. It was my daughter's middle school class book for the year so I just had to read it.

  • Glass Sword

    A little wear on the cover of the book but I suspected that beyond that it looked brand new
