Wild Magic by Tamora Pierce

As a young girl named Daine, asks Onua Chamtong for a job, a new life begins for her. As she travels with the trader, they are attacked by stormwings, a race of immortals or creatures that can't die unless they are killed. Daine discovers that she possesses wild magic. After a famous magician, Numair Salmalin, explains these things to Daine, a life of adventure begins.

This is an excellent book that I would recommend to anyone who has a love for magic. Now, for any guys who read this, don't shy away from this book just because the main character is a girl. I'm a guy and I read the whole series! Any way, it is filled with action and mystery. After reading this, if you like it of course, you should read the rest of the series. The series is called the Immortals. Well, until next time.

Airborn By Kenneth Oppel

A young man by the name of Matt Cruse, worked on an airship called the Aurora. It was a beautiful ship, where the rich often flew. Then, at the beginning of one trip, he met Kate de Vries. On this trip, everything went wrong. The ship was boarded by pirates, in fact, the most famous pirate of them all, Vikram Szpirglas. The ship crashed on an unknown island. Though, some good things happen also. Matt and Kate discover a new species, and so much more.

This is the most amazing book I have ever set my eyes upon. It's got everything needed to make a wonderful book. Lots of action, some suspense, and even a little bit of romance. This and the 7th Harry Potter, are my all time favorite book. If there was a must read list, this would be either at the top or the second, followed by the sequel, Skybreaker. I would recommend this to anyone one who says they like reading.

Until next time,

The City of Ember by Jeanne Duprau

A young girl named Lina discovers a list of secret instructions to leave her city, Ember. The was consructed so long ago by the Builders, an ancient race of people that built the city of Ember. The city was falling apart. The lights that kept their city from being enshrouded in darkness, were turning off so much more often now. The storerooms that lay below the city, once filled to the brim by the Builders with everything the city might need, were either empty or running dangerously low. Now Lina, and her best friend Doon, team up to decipher the Instructions for Egress, and to find a way out of their dying city.

This book is really good, I would definatly recomend it to any one. It's kind of slow going for a while, but then it starts to get going. Before you know it, there is ation on every page. I hope, if you read it, you enjoy it.
