5.0 out of 5 stars I loved this Book!, October 9, 2005

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Wizard's Curse: Trinistyr Trilogy, Volume 1 (Dragonlance: the New Adventure) (Paperback)

I loved this book because it has humor, adventure and it is very interesting. The character Keene, is funny and is always getting into trouble. Not only is this book funny and in some parts, realistic, but also includes fantasy, magic, battle scenes and friendship. I really enjoyed the book. It is a great book for middle-school kids such as myself, and adults too. Some more parts I enjoyed were when there were battle scenes that included bows and arrows, elven swords, dragons and even a few ogres. I think that kids would want to stay up late reading this book. I did. Order this book, and I know you'll enjoy this fantasy filled story, just like I did.

This review is from: Wizard's Curse: Trinistyr Trilogy, Volume 1 (Dragonlance: the New Adventure) (Paperback)

This is a wonderful read! My daughter and I both read it. I found the characters to be engaging and real. As I began to read, I too was going along for the adventure; sensing danger, facing fear, laughing at times, enjoying certain characters, while loathing others. I pictured myself wielding a sword doing battle with Kirilin, ogres and draconians. I felt the coldness of Icereach and wondered what lard would feel like on my face in order to protect my skin from such extreme temperatures. At sea, on a ship--could I have stitched up Icefire's wound after the battle with Kirilin. What inner strength would I have in the use of magic for either good or bad? This is a book you can experience and enjoy.

There is plenty of action and adventure as Icefire leads Nearra, her sister Jirah, and friend Davyn on a journey to restore magic to Nearra's family. Davyn and Icefire clash at every turn, while Jirah's feelings of jealousy over Nearra lead them down a path of danger. You'll also meet Keene and his dog Pip. They are Icefire's companions. Keene is funny and a bit of a trouble maker, but loyal nonetheless. As for Icefire, he's my favorite. For me, he's the wild card (a charmer, rogue, adventurer and risk taker).

I loved this book because the characters and story were made real for me.
