Austin Bailey has outdone himself with his new Simon Fayter series! The characters are so real to start with the reader is drawn into the tale quickly.

Original and Intriguing Fantasy Adventure
Simon Fayter and the Doors of Bone is an intriguing fantasy adventure with originality and ingenuity. I particularly enjoyed Simon figuring out how to use the magical coat as well as discovering the secret to the Doors of Bone (with the many adventures inbetween). I especially liked the ending which perfectly sets the stage for the next book in the series. I have read all of Austin J. Bailey's books in the Magemother series, but this is my favorite book he has written (to date).
