I was sent this book by the author for an honest review.This story is a curious mixture of fantasy and reality, myth and history, where the children of a missing father search for him within the realms of 'another world'.It tackles themes such as family, love, friendship and the thirst for power and revenge, mostly seen by the children's point of view, particularly Emma.Both the 'real' and 'fantasy' characters are believable and together there is an intriguing bond.I don't give spoilers, but I will say that this tale is filled with magic, enchantment, wizards and demons - a story that keeps the reader in reality due to things like the use of a mobile phone and yet allows us the enjoy the fantasy world created.
