The Last Dragonslayer: The Chronicles of Kazam, Book 1
By Jasper Fforde
If you like fantasy this book is for you. It is completely fiction and although lots of it is about magic, it's nothing like Harry Potter. The story is about a 15 year-old girl named Jennifer Strange who is running the Kazam Mystical Arts Management , who employ magicians, after Mr. Zambini mysteriously disappeared. Magic is a great thing except when it starts to fade and now the wizards have to use their powers carefully. But then someone at Kazam gets a vison about the last dragon who is going to be slayed and which Jennifer knows she has to save it. The book is a very fun read, where you meet various different characters all with creative names such as Tiger Prawns.
The Stone Warriors (TombQuest, Book 4)
By Michael Northrop
Stone Warriors is the 4th book in the TombQuest series. In this book Ren and Alex continue their search for for Alex's mother and the book of Lost Spells. This series has the same idea as 39 Clues or Spirit Animals-though they are all written by the same author. There suspense, action, a little mystery. As there were three previous books that I did not read, some parts were confusing. However, overall I was able to figure out what had happened and the key events that had occurred. The book was very fast-paced and had a lot of action. I was on the edge of my seat when the book ended on a cliffhanger. Will Ren and Alex complete their search? Or will Alex lose his mother forever? Will Ren and Alex be able to escape the cunning Order? This book would be good for ages 11-15. I wouldn't recommend it to any younger because of the whole setting of the book. There are many battles and graphic scenes. Overall, I enjoyed this book very much. I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars.
