Five great warriors of each race set out on a journey to defeat evil with their magic. The young Cad Blackshear and his best friend, Damiana damiana (däˑ·mē·ä·n , battle the Entity, as did their parents and generations before them. Cad feared that he and all of the people in his land were doomed to an uncertain future under the Entity's control. But unknown to Cad Blackshear was the depth of his own strength and magic as he was catapulted into a quest with the lives of the entire world in his hands. What a wonderful surprise. This is an excellent fantasy novel from author Wendy Simpson unlike anything I have ever read. The journeys of Cale Blackshear and Damiana D'Feyhar teach the power of self-reliance and belief, as well as teamwork. There is nothing more I can say except read this book! --Reviewed by Desiree Harrison Desiree Harrison is a senior at Baltimore City College Baltimore City College (BCC), also referred to as The Castle on the Hill, The College, and more commonly as City, is a public secondary school in Baltimore, Maryland, U.S. High School in Baltimore, Maryland. |
