MY REVIEW
I read book 1, Magicalia Race of Wonders, that I absolutely loved, With being a fan, I just had to read, Jennifer Bell’s book 2 Magicalia, Thief of Shadows, which I loved just as much as the 1st novel. Jennifer Bell has an incredible sense of imagination and is in my view the new Queen of fantasy for 9 for 12 year olds. I can’t wait to find one, what Jennifer Bell will write about next time in her 3rd fantasy novel. I do hope schools will stock Jennifer Bell’s fantasy books as they are the best escape for children reading about magical creatures.
