One Terrific Read!

This is supposed to be written for YAs. However, I think it is fine for all of us! This is the first Michael Scott I've read and I will be reading more. I love the characters; the plot is tight and the action non-stop! It is the quintessential good versus bad plotline and the entire story is engaging.

It has been compared to Harry Potter, but I think because this is a book about a cast of characters versus a main character, the feel is different. I very much enjoyed it.

A note, though, that if you do not enjoy fantasy, this book is probably not for you.
