www.writeforareader.blogspot.com: This was a fun, Middle Grade book!  Fun because it was chock full of magic.  What tween doesn’t love magic?  I liked the fact that the main character is a boy.  I haven’t read a lot lately with male main characters, so this was a welcome treat.

Kaleb Nation is a great writer!  There is such imagination in his words, especially for him being so young.  He got the idea for Bran Hambric when he was just fourteen, but spent most of his teenage years writing it.  Now, at the age of 20, he’s got his first published book, that is sure to be a hit!

 I found myself laughing out loud many times during the reading of this book.  It was just funny at times!  One scene in particular, at the beginning, when they are chasing the burglar, just kept me in stitches.  The people in Dunce, where Bran lives, do some strange things.  It takes a lot of imagination to write a story like this, because so much is going on, magic, mystery,  mayhem, and menace.

I have read Kaleb’s blog a couple times and found that he has a great sense of humor and is very witty. Who knew he could write so well? I guess its not too surprising is it? I think I will pick this book up soon. Its been getting good reviews and it sounds like a fun and imaginative read. Plus, I love magic!
