The Witch's Revenge by D A Nelson

How could you not succeed at your quest with a dodo bird, rat and a dragon at your side?  

Delacorte Books for Young Readers gave me an ebook to review (thank you).  The book will be published November 8th.  This is the second book in the series, but I had no trouble reading it without reading the first one.

This is tale of wizards, witches, magic, and evil of more than one kind.  Morag finds herself fighting the evil with the help of her friends, but she doesn't have the magic the others do.

Here's a rousing tale with danger, excitement, odd creatures, and two fantasy kingdoms involved.  As you trip along the trail and across the sea with Morag, you can see that there will be another book in this series.  That's a good thing because not all the secrets have been revealed thus far.

I'd suggest middle graders will enjoy this series most.  It has enough silly stuff to keep them interested and I know they'll want to read the whole series.  Why not get them book one now and then pick this one up when it comes out?  If they like fantasy and magic, this is a good series for them.

Happy reading.
