Critic reviews

“The well-chosen words of the narrative read aloud beautifully.” ( Booklist)

Very entertaining story!

I really enjoyed this one! It pulled me in from beginning to end and I loved the difference this time with Emma having to try and use her magic as little as possible. Emma and Eadric travel to his Kingdom to hopefully help change his parents, especially his mother's, view of Emma as she hates magic and so is now against the marriage. Eadric is planning to marry Emma anyways but they go so his parents can get to know her better and see who she actually is. When they show up, they find out that Eadric's younger brother is missing and head off to go find him. They figure out that the trolls are holding him and what an adventure that starts. They have quite the journey in order to get there and the trolls are already after Emma at this point and Emma has to figure out how to get around things without magic. They have to overcome other obstacles as well and learn to trust each other and work together on a different level again. The story was very well done and very enjoyable and entertaining.
The narrator did a good job with the characters and story and bringing it to life.

Very enjoyable

The story is. quite easy to follow, and often funny. A good read for anyone.

The crab

It was a good idea to bring the crab back. He stole my heart and a gem.
