Product Description

The first benefit concert for the Ravenswood Wildlife Preserve is on! Everyone is depending on the event to ensure the survival of Ravenswood. It’s got to be a success. And Kara’s on the case. She’s booked two mega rock acts, a fabulous girl band and hot pop idol Johnny Conrad. But Conrad may be hiding a dangerous secret that threatens the animals, Ravenswood, and the girls themselves.

Spellsinger is the fifth book in Avalon: Web of Magic, a twelve book fantasy series for middle grade readers. Through their magical journey, the teenage heroines discover who they really are . . . and run into plenty of good guys, bad guys, and cute guys. Out of print for two years, Seven Seas is pleased to return the Avalon series to print in editions targeted for today’s manga-readers, with new manga-style covers and interior illustrations.

4.0 out of 5 stars Hmmmm. Okay., January 14, 2005

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Spellsinger (Avalon: Web of Magic, Book 5) (Paperback)

Well, this is probably my least favorite book in the series. We don't find out all that much, though it is important because Kara accidentally opens the path to Avalon, or so a mysteroius e-mail from long-lost wizard Henry Gardener says.

This book was anything but boring, and was still an excellent read (I loved the song lyrics that were everywhere--no, I'm not being sarcastic, the music is awesome!!!), but the plot was...I dunno. You see, Kara's being dragged under a spell somehow, and it's making her do some not-so-good things. I just don't like that. And Kara's not exactly my favorite character, anyhow.

Still, it's an excellent story--just not the best in a wonderful series.

2.0 out of 5 stars Spellsinger's Mishaps, February 14, 2004

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Spellsinger (Avalon: Web of Magic, Book 5) (Paperback)

the book wasn't exactly my taste. I've always liked Adriane.(I guess "like" isn't exactly right. I guess obsessed would do it.) But Kara and Adriane leared to like each other and trust each other.I noticed that Emily wasn't in the book a lot,either. Nor the animals of Ravenswood.

4.0 out of 5 stars People you really need to chill, January 17, 2006

By	Sara K - See all my reviews

This review is from: Spellsinger (Avalon: Web of Magic, Book 5) (Paperback)

Out all these reviews i read many people gave this book a bad review you really need to chill! Seroisly its just a book and I found it exciting and through every chapter it was intresting. Like I can understand that she took Emily's horn and all and she had no control of herslef when she was in the spell!
It was basically about the mages having a rock concert to benifent ravenswood and kara has booked two bands but one of the bands dont show up. This jhonny conrad knows alot about the mages and hangs around kara alot and doesnt seem so good. Later the mages banish him in a portal.
the only thing that bugged me was when she took Emily's horn and how betraying she was to her friends so next time in the rest of the series I hope she won't be like that.
