Teenage Sorcerer Apprentice
In fantasy stories, everything from characters, props, through geography to magic has
to work in perfect harmony. Pawn of Prophecy is one of the fantasy books that really
work all the way through. Dialogues are funny, it has the necessary cliff hangers, and magic has
strict rules to follow. You could take a holiday in the land of
make-believe with this book anytime. It is, though, the first in a series of five; you better reserve some time for the others, too.

The Thief Who Learned Magic
Enter the world of fantasy writers: Althalus was a thief, a crook, and an occasional murderer; he was probably the best thief in the world.
And this fantasy story book is all about his adventures in a world of make believe. Or it should be
about his adventures, but a few things went wrong along the way. That might seem
normal for any story worth writing about. But a few things went wrong
with writing the book itself. Which makes it either a bad book, or an
interesting one. It depends on your point of view.
