review 1: Well I am in love with fantasy books. This book I found sitting on a shelf in the library alone and the cover looked quite interesting. After reading it I am so glad I picked up the lonely book on the end cap of the bookshelf. It is a book that if I hadn't read Harry Potter, the best series ever written, I would have called it the best fantasy book I had ever read. The characters are intriguing and they develop over the course of the book in a satisfying way. The plot has many twists and i found myself devouring the book within a day. The book can be a little unbelievable(it's fantasy though, it should be a little unbelievable) even for a fantasy lover uh me. Therefore anyone who likes fantasy and has an open mind and a great imagination should definitely read this ... morebook.
review 2: This is my favorite J fantasy of the week. Nicholas (Kolya) is just a regular kid whose mother died mysteriously years ago and whose father is an unsuccessful Las Vegas magician and whose grandfather is always having cryptic arguments with said father. Like I said, just a regular kid. On his 13th birthday, his grandfather kidnaps him to take him to a real fortune teller, who can see that Nick has magical powers that are in great demand. His mother's family, led by the famous (and very successful) Las Vegas magician Damian, adopt him, and he moves to a fancy hotel, where he meets his cousin (yay! a friend!) and eats caviar and cream cheese (and he's upset about this. silly kid). Of course, there are bad guys, and they try to kill Nicholas and Isabella (the cousin). However, because of their talent and chutzpah, the children win out against the old, wise, and powerful bad guys.It was cute. I'm going to read the rest of them. less

Meh. Just didn't get me all that drawn in. Villain(s) too predictable.
