Review by Jack

I read this book because I was sent it by James from the Rebel Reading Society and I ended up really enjoying it!

I would describe this book as a fantasy graphic novel with amazing illustrations, amazing characters, exhilarating plot line and heart-racing challenges.

I really liked this book's illustrations and it looks like it must have taken ages to create. Also, I like idea of the evil owls and honest rates. The ending was left on such a cliffhanger, I NEED to read the next one!

I would recommend this book to people who like fantasy books and to people who like graphic novels. I would also recommend this book to readers who are ages 8+ because of some mild violence.
