“Reluctant heroes rise, quests abound, strange creatures greet you at every turn, fantasy foods that you can taste, and a unique world to explore! “

Review by Rayleigh Setser

A mystical land ruled by evil . . .

Few creatures who remember how life used to be . . .

And a young girl flung into this world of tyranny and oppression.

The magical world of Althord Loch is crumbling . . . at the hands of the evil Panthera.

Fifteen-year-old Mirri is struggling with the guilt of her father’s death, when she lands in front of a twisted staircase, in a land of forbidden magic. With the help of an orphaned elf and lonely Loofa, Mirri accepts her fate. Together, these misfits must change the course of this world—or die trying.Walking over rushing waters and battling Fangars are only parts of the danger that lies ahead.

Join Mirri on the adventure of a lifetime—an adventure that teaches Mirri it’s not how much power you hold—it’s how much you believe in yourself.

A Magic Evermore is such a fun story that reminded me of an Alice in Wonderland type of chaos with a touch of Narnia. Reluctant heroes rise, quests abound, strange creatures greet you at every turn, fantasy foods that you can taste, and a unique world to explore! 

I loved the emphasis on storytelling that Mirri and her journal portray throughout the story. Smidge and Jinx were equally lovable characters and made the adventure a delight to read. This story is everything I expect from a YA fantasy quest. It is a fast-paced quest, and Mirri is 15, so I would recommend it to the younger side of YA, though I thoroughly enjoyed every moment with Mirri, Smidge, and Jinx! 

I can't wait to start the next book!
