Publisher Description

Acclaimed author of The Warrior Heir, Cinda Williams Chima delivers this riveting sequel - a VOYA Perfect 10 and a New York Public Library 2008 Book for the Teen Age.

Booted from one exclusive school to the next since his foster mom's death three years ago, 16-year-old Seph McCauley knows he's different. But he doesn't understand why he can summon menacing ravens, freeze summer ponds, and torch all he touches. And then Seph makes the mistake of trusting his new headmaster. If you like Harry Potter, you'll love Seph McCauley.

"Another enjoyable, fast-paced story from the Heir Chronicles. Ms. Williams Chima has once again given us a very likeable hero, who is supported and aided by several other remarkable characters. I think I liked this book even more than the first one, the Warrior Heir, although some of the characters from that book also show up in this second one. There are several neat twists and turns that will keep you reading until the end, which leaves you hanging somewhat. But, that's okay because you know there's another book coming to hopefully tie up all the loose ends."

    " This was a well written story with some very good characters, but it seems that the characters of Jack, Ellen and company from the first book really got the shaft in the sequel. They show up halfway thru the book but only as second class supporting characters. With only three books to tell Chima's story I thought this was kind of an odd choice to introduce a whole new character into the Heir chronicles. "

    " Not quite as wonderful as The Warrior Heir, but I sped through it happily. The background for this was developed in the first book, The Wizard Heir, so if you haven't read book 1, your experience is not quite as rich. The difference for me between the two books was that this wasn't quite as surprising or suspenseful. I am looking forward to moving on to the series conclusion, The Dragon Heir. "

    " more like a 3.5. It was fast paced, with lots of action. Of course, some poignant moments, particularly at the school. Some great twists at the end of the story. Will of course read the next book! Once I got into it, I couldn't put it down! "

    " This book pulls you in. Itmakes you wonder if the world should or should not have wizzards. (If it were possible) Along with life there are good and bad, but who will prevale. Can't wait for the next in the series "

    " Another book that I read at the insistence of my youngest son. Like its prequel, The Warrior Heir, this book is moderately entertaining. Though written for a younger audience, it is creative, and absent of the sensuality that too often pervades even books intended for the pre-teen crowd. "

    " This was better than the first novel with more unique and exciting ideas. The struggle was better played out and the new point of view was interesting. But there was still the unexplained limits on magic. I still wanted to know more about Cinda Chima's version of magic. "

    " I really liked this book. I was concerned about the new protagonist at first but the story really came into its own. I was constantly wondering when a blind side was coming and it actually came in a different way than i thought it would. I like that, not as predictable like so many books are. "

    " I didn't like this quite as well as the Warrior Heir. It was a bit grittier, edgier, with talk of drugs, alcohol,etc. The story line wasn't as original and compelling either. so, a fine escape read, but I'm not lovin it. "
