MY REVIEW

Leaf had been a ward of the school for eight years. He wasn’t sure of his age much less his real name. What he did know though, was that he was an enlighten and still didn’t have a power. It made him the laughingstock of the entire school. But after the mage challenge, Leaf would gain respect and forevermore be known as Brimstone. After months of brutal training, Brimstone became a great warrior. Just in the nick of time it seems, because war broke out, and the Mage School is in the center of it all. Brimstone is accused of an infraction and is arrested by the Order. Now, he has to find a way to escape before it’s too late.

This is an excellent young reader even though there’s plenty of violence and retribution. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The characters were of true fantasy persona. Although the plot was predictable, I didn’t want to stop reading until the end. I did lag a little at the demon part and didn’t understand it easily, but all in all rushed through the rest of it just to see how it would end. Imagine my disappointment to find the ending has a cliffhanger, whereas I wanted closure.
