The Magician (YA) (4.5/5)

The Magician (YA) (4.5/5)

This is the second in a series and is as action packed as the first one. Sophie and Josh are twins who are deemed to be "the ones" to have powerful auras. Nicholas Flamel, an immortal, needs their help to save his kidnapped wife. There are great figures in this series--magicians, vampires, monsters, Joan of Arc etc. This book will keep readers enthralled with the action, the twists and the turns. #3 comes out later this month and I will read it. I enjoy this series and I am not usually much of a fantasy fans. Both girls and boys will like this book and it is appropriate for MS and HS students.
