MY REVIEW
Are you looking for an incredible new book to add to your middle schoolers reading collection? Are you a fan of a good fiction, mythology, and/or fantasy books? Well The Three Stones Of Ebon is the perfect fit for you. I love this book and it is a fantastic read that will hook you in within the first few pages, making it hard to tear yourself away in order to get anything else done…..LOL. But seriously I love books like that and The Three Stones Of Ebon does not disappoint. This one is basically a story of Jack, an 11 year old kid who receives a vase with interesting pictures on it…. that resemble Jack and his cat Lucky. His father got the vase to gift to Jack from Mrs Krauss, the older lady down the street who had hired Jack’s father for a handyman job and that all of the kids in the neighborhood things in crazy.. The first night that Jack has the vase….. is where the story and adventures unfold. The vase transports Jack and his cat, Lucky, to the wondrous world of Sturgus which is magical land of prophecies, pirates, magical creatures, and talking cats. Without giving too much away…. Jack finds out that he has to find the three stones of Ebon to save Sturges from Pale… the evil sorcerer who has reigned for far too long. This is a must read and I highly recommend it and it’s not just for 8+ years old as I am an adult and thoroughly enjoyed it!
