Too ruthless in my opionion. June 12, 2007
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book caught my eye because of the word, "Samarkand". For I truly enjoyed The Amulet of Samarkand by J. Stroud and expected a similar magic. I also read many appraising reviews of this book posted on Amazon.co.uk As I started few chapters of this book, it slowly revealed its inner magic, which was good, and also of its bit too violent images (in my taste - for a children's book). The way the evil magician, at a young age, do away his OWN FAMILY duplicating the style of young Kate of The East of Eden: locking up the family in the house and setting conflagration, is an overly sinister imagination and should not placed in a children's novel - in my opinion.
