Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Katya

This book is the one I'd always give as an example of the saying 'don't judge a book by it's cover'.. Even though I've seen three or four different editions of it, every one of them has had the most hideous cover. DON'T LET IT PUT YOU OFF!

The story itself is excellent, and although magic plays a key part in it, it's more about growing up and accepting who you are and who you want to be. The line about thunder 'munching' round the sky is one that has stuck with me since I first read the book, three or four years ago now.

It's brilliant; don't hesitate to buy it if you see it, because it's out of print and pretty hard to find. Hey, you might even make some money selling on on Ebay after you've read it!
