A Modern Harry Potter Esque Story
When you first hear about this story you will probably get it described to similarly as in my title because there are clear inspirations and parallels especially in the beginning of the book. Nevertheless it still is it’s own story and does what it does perfectly. You will be taken away into a wonderful, quirky, magical world with very compelling characters, a very interesting culture with different races and it’s own magical system. If you decide to give this book a try you will be given the opportunity of reexperiencing a magical feeling that you knew only too well from your childhood books.
