In this book, three very different girls all have a similar destiny: to save their world from the darkness. They have to get past all sorts of barriers: sealed towns, irate guards, and birds that feed on fear. At the same time, the Nameless One is trying to find the secrets to his past and his future. I have read this book several times and each time I find something new in it. It is a great fantasy story-- probably more for girls than boys, though.   posted Feb 17, 2008 at 9:29PM

I know this book is a little young for teens, but it is still a great read. If you start this, make sure you have access to the rest of series because they are REALLY fast reads.   posted Feb 17, 2008 at 9:25PM

I absolutely loved the book. The plot was well-formed, and there were certain lines that made me laugh out loud. I thought the epilogue was incredible; it told us a lot, but I just wish we had learned more about other characters and what had happened between the last chapter and the epilogue.   posted Jul 28, 2007 at 11:33AM
