Cait Weerd is visiting her grandmother at the Manchester Central Library. They are returning some books to the archives deep below the library when they are attacked by an evil creature, an 'undain'. Cait's grandmother gives her a valuable book and tells her to run. Then the whole scene changes and we are with witches and dragon riders. The witches are attacked, again by an evil creature, and an ancient grimoire is stolen. Why are these books so important? Where are these 'undain' coming from? Why do they want Cait?This book is FULL of action! Which normally, I wouldn't really be into that but I was on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. Simon grabs you in the beginning and doesn't let you go! Although, I have to say I was a little confused in the early part if the book because of the scene change, but once I got acclimated to it, I was on a wild ride all the way to the finish line. There is a nice twist at the end of the book that had me really going. The author really put some work behind this. He brings you into his world and practically shows you what he sees through is descriptiveness of your surroundings. I think he did a wonderful job and this book would be recommended for anyone who likes magic and dragons. 4 out of 5 stars.
